Happy Sunday!  What does one wear when it’s so  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.

There is BEAUTI  in everything, find it…
