STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Kimono Craziness

Some of my favorite outfits are those that embody style and comfort. I’m sure no one likes the feeling of worrying about their clothing and making sure everything is in its place throughout the day, so simple pieces that are comfortable yet cute are a must. Also, when you’re in a rush and need to throw together a stylish outfit quickly, it is important to have a few pieces that can get the job done.

Kimonos are one trend that fit this description effortlessly, as I mentioned in my last post, they are becoming a go-to item for me. They are super versatile as they can be worn for many different occasions and they have become very popular, rightfully so. There are a wide variety of fits and designs of kimonos available so no matter what look you’re going for, you can find the right one. Some are very long and some have fun fringe, whatever suits your style.

This Fashionista’s lightweight kimono has a beautiful floral pattern and is perfect for the last few remaining days of spring. The all-black tank top and jeans were a good choice especially with the kimono’s dark lace along its sleeves and bottom. There can be a few chilly days left here on Long Island before the heat is here to stay, so we can’t say goodbye to jeans just yet. Her strappy sandals brought out the light shades of brown in her kimono and completed the look.

The possibilities are endless as kimonos can be dressed up and have a fun edgy look or you can wear them more simply, like this Fashionista. They are a good opportunity to show off your fashionable side or just to have as an essential for the summer ahead. No matter how you choose to wear this trend, I know you’ll look RAD.

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “Pieces like kimonos are flattering for all body types and I always feel comfortable in them.”
