Thursday I went shopping with Molly for a new Hanbok - it's a traditional Korean dress women wear for special occasions. I wish I had brought the one I bought during my first trip to Korea, but then again; it's more than 10-years-old. Molly has mentioned that with all these events we go to, she wished that she wasn't the only one wearing a Hanbok...that's all I needed to hear. She took me to the place where a woman has been making her Hanbok's for years. And it's the same woman that made Hanbok's for Berta Holt too! I couldn't pass up this opportunity!
It's a little overwhelming when you first walk into the store. So many colors and patterns to choose from! it makes your head spin!
We looked through a few books, and I decided on a traditional Korean Hanbok (like the one in the picture above). They have "modern" ones they make these days, but they aren't as elegant in my opinion.
I picked a beautiful red one, with a white jacket! It's GORGEOUS!! can't wait to wear it and post it on my blog!
