Updated 16:23pm on 11 Jun 2008



Hollywood actress Reese Witherspoon looked a picture of elegance when she ditched her western attire for a traditional Japanese kimono.

There were no pink outfits in in sight as the Legally Blonde actress attended a tea ceremony in Tokyo.

Looking demure, she shuffled along in the beautiful but awkward outfit to partake in the complicated ceremony for the cleansing of the soul.
