Sunday Look: Summer Style In A Kimono

Blogs, , , , , , ,
Happy Sunday!  What does one wear when it’s so Image result for sun HOT out?  I know it’s a struggle to keep cool while trying to be fashionable.  The first thing that comes to my mind “sleeveless”.
Today I took the perfect little sleeveless summer dress and paired it with a Kimono. (I wore the same dress in a different pattern a few weeks ago).   A Kimono can take a simple dress and turn it into something more stylish.  I ♥love♥ how this look turned out.

Accessorizing was so easy too!  I picked two colors from the Kimono and used those colors in my accessories. My necklace made a statement.  I coordinated earrings and bangles to finish my jewelry look.  My shoes had to be platform peep-toe heels for the greatest impact 😉 .

Style Tip: One way to make your necklace a statement piece, combine two for one look.  If you really want to make a statement, combine two different colors which is what I did for this look. 

My BAG today,  an orange handbag with a detailed “X” pattern on the front flap in addition to a decorative gold clasp and chain.   Perfect bag for this outfit.

Happy Sunday everyone! What a busy weekend and its finally coming to an end. No time to really plan an outfit for today. I guess I got lucky with this fit and flare skirt and tangerine high-low top. I purchased both of them a while ago [at separate times] not knowing how I would style either. I love the flow of this skirt, its giving me that Stepford Wives vibe. Instead of just letting the top swallow me up, I belted it (WITH A POP OF COLOR) for a more flattering appearance. It gives a totally different look than if I had left it loose.

My mint green bag is the statement piece to this outfit, it says SPRING (yasssss!) My shoes (BOGO) are loaded with bright colors and ties the entire outfit together. Lastly, PEARLS are always a good idea!  Don’t you just love COLOR?  I couldn’t have planned this if I tried.

Style Tip- You know you got it right when the complements flow.
