Wear floral accessories

Flower motifs are a staple of accessories, but if you're going to wear a flower motif, why not try something different from the usual? One type of flower that is surprisingly often overlooked is Japanese flowers. Western flowers have a glamorous image, but it's rare to find a flower like the cherry blossom that is glossy, represents the season, and is available in a variety of products. Chrysanthemums also have a chic image, but the real thing is very gorgeous. Cherry blossoms and chrysanthemums are extremely beautiful flowers, and can be used in any motif. Another aspect of Japanese beauty is expressing the seasons with flowers: plum blossoms and cherry blossoms in spring, and chrysanthemums and maples in autumn.
Japanese flowers are actually more well-known than flowers that are suitable for floral designs, and many of them are very beautiful and gorgeous. For example, cherry blossoms, as you know, are so gorgeous that they can decorate entire towns, and chrysanthemums have a pure image but come in a wide variety of colors and shapes. When it comes to accessories, necklaces with a cherry blossom motif are lovely, and voluminous hair accessories are also gorgeous. Chrysanthemums can be used as pendant heads on their own, or they can be layered in different colors, creating a wide variety of arrangements.

Increase your femininity with a flower hairpin!

Japanese accessories featuring peonies and plum blossoms have a certain Japanese feel to them. Peonies have appeared as a subject in literary works and paintings since ancient times. Plum blossoms, like the way they grow without being too prominent on the tree, have also been used as a subject for paintings and as patterns on kimonos. It can be said that peonies and plum blossoms are flowers that match the sensibility of the Japanese person very well. Accessories designed with these flowers perfectly match the image of Japanese women and will enhance your femininity.
Kanzashi have been popular among Japanese women for a long time, but nowadays, those made from synthetic resin are also sold. Japanese designs such as cherry blossoms and chrysanthemums seem to be popular. Materials that have been used since ancient times include woods such as cherry blossoms and paulownia, and now-rare tortoiseshell.
The appeal of a kanzashi lies in its design and texture, so you should judge it based on the quality of the material and design rather than the price. If you find a product you like, you will enjoy wearing your kimono or yukata.

Flower Arrangement Recommendations

There are many beautiful varieties of Japanese flowers that go well with flower arrangements. They come in a wide variety of colors, from red to white or mixed, and there are even chrysanthemums. They look great, so they make very well-received gifts. Also, like plum blossoms, Japanese flowers are unique in that they have a chic atmosphere despite their blooming. They are perfect for gifts that don't want to be flashy, but still have a festive feel. Plum blossoms also come in a wide variety of colors and shapes, so choose one that suits the recipient and the purpose.
Flower arrangements are a classic gift, but Western flowers can easily become repetitive and seem like a safe gift. Why not try something a little more creative and choose flowers that are truly Japanese? Peony flowers are very gorgeous and are perfect for celebrations such as school entrance ceremonies and weddings. They are also stately flowers, so they can convey the image of respecting someone of higher rank, such as a promotion. Plum blossoms are also wonderful for celebrating a 60th birthday. Red plum blossoms have a pure yet resolute beauty, while white plum blossoms exude femininity. Both plum blossoms and peonies come in a wide variety of colors and varieties, and can be used as a gift to express your careful consideration.
