How To Be A Modern Geisha #






Moustaches's 1st bithday is almost near and I can't wait to celebrate with you. My will is to lauch a new column entirely about the Geisha Style.
What is the so-called style about? How can we take inspiration from this elegant and mysterious type of woman?  Is it still possible to be a geisha nowadays?

Let's figure it out together in a 5-tips weekly guide!
Stay tuned ;)

Ginko leaves

A flood alarm leds me to be stuck at home helpless watching the falling leaves. That hurts my heart, expecially because I've waited so long to see the ginko leaves turning yellow.
Here's an 'ode' to my favourite tree ever: the one and only that makes me think every time to the beautiful Japanese Autumn. Something that I miss a lot, something irreplaceable.

November Pumpkins

We don't celebrate Halloween, but we do love pumpkins anyway. Even though for you, my American readers, a yellow pumpkin is even more than a simple ingredient, we turn out to reduce it to an inviting dish of 'gnocchi' (small Italian dumplings) or a new gelato taste, without forgetting my favourite pizza ever: the pumpkin and mushroom one!
But... what if Yayoi Kusama eventually inspires my mother? The result is flower baskets full of decorated orange veggies, fire-red leaves and lots of dots!
Dear November, welcome back :)
