STYLING THE KIMONO TREND EFFORTLESSLY…

Don’t you love kimono! The traditional Japanese wear which has been westernized to the T is disturbing the fashion world this summer. The effortless nature of the garment makes it hard to resist. Kimonos come in different sizes, styles, patterns and prints, -and they can practically be paired with anything and everything. It can be a statement piece or you can take a casual approach to styling it. They are a classy and stylish way to stay covered up. Add a bohemian vibe to your outfit with these babes too. There are endless options out there. From laces, florals, tassels, fringe, you can find something perfect for your style. Shop for affordable ones here.

I got this kimono from Shein awhile ago but, unfortunately its soldout. I was drawn to it by the details on the sleeves. So beautiful! I wore this to a party.

Hello Beauties!

Hope everyone had a lovely Christmas and looking forward to the new year. Have you got any plans?

In the name of flashback Friday, I want to take the opportunity to re-share a post that mistakenly got deleted during the migration.

Have a lovely weekend, beauties!

 Wish you all a Happy New Year in advance. May 2018 be a year of goodness and mercies. Thank you all so much for your support this year. -And also for inspiring/motivating me along the way.

 

Much Love!

DANKE…

    What a gorgeous kimono and I love the length of it, I don’t think any of mine are that long. The fringe bottom is so pretty and I love the gold on the sleeves. Have a wonderful New Year!

    That is a beautiful kimono! 🙂 I love kimonos, although I don’t have any like this one, it’s beautiful with the fringe and the embroidery detail on the sleeves! 🙂

    Hope you had a wonderful Christmas and are having a great week! It’s hard to believe there are just a couple of days left in 2017! A happy new year to you.

    Surprisingly, I do not yet own any kimonos, even though I have seen a variety of them included in fashion bloggers outfit posts and loved the looks. The kimono you got from Shein looks wonderful styled with that dress (which you look fabulous wearing)! I like the fringe at the cuffs of the sleeves of the kimono and at its hem.
    A Happy New Year to you as well!
