A picnic under the blossoms

Hanami Picnic: a picnic under the blossoms. Hanami Picnic is blossom season at its sunniest. The recipe spreads a picnic blanket under blooming cherry trees, with a bento box, pink, white and green sweet dumplings on skewers and a flask of tea, while petals drift through the air. It's an alcohol-free picnic, and the light on you is matched to the scene. Your own outfit, your hair and anything you wear on your head stay exactly as they are: a headscarf, a hat or a bow stays, and none is added. So do your face, skin tone and natural skin texture. It's one of the two looks for hanami, Japan's cherry blossom season.

What you get

• Blooming cherry trees and drifting petals
• A picnic blanket and a bento box
• Pink, white and green dumplings on skewers
