Technically for "Seiji-no-hi" (Coming of Age Day) hence the kimono and the fur stoll.

Thanks for the cultural info... I wish these thingies had subs, so I wouldn't have to guess what the heck they're doing... :sweat:

Very cool.

Guess it was no coincidence for a Jonetsu Tairiku film crew to be following Juri-chan around this year... :)

What's the deal with the white stoles?...they just ruin the harmony of the kimono...they're like fuzzy dice hanging from the rearview mirror of a Rolls-Royce
...oh, well it's the fashion

Here's two other young actresses celebrating Seiji-no-hi (with heavy media coverage and no stoles):
