She looks so beautiful! The color of the kimono complamints her also. Did you happen to finde out how old she is? I took a Human Geography class last year in school and The book said they start training around the age of 13. She looks yong so thats why i was wondering.

Actually, we Maiko start our training at 15, and many won't become Geiko or full-fledged Geisha untill they are 19.

She must be very close to becoming a geisha judging by the amount of red (or lack there of) on her collar.
