Day to Night Kimono

Day to night kimono….is that a thing? Well….if not, we are going to make it a thing. I feel like we may be wearing you guys out with kimonos these days, but I. Just. Can’t. Stop. I’ll go ahead and apologize right now if you don’t like kimonos or if you are getting tired of seeing them on our feed. However, let me explain myself a little bit and why I love them oh so much, especially this time of year.

For me personally, I love kimonos for a couple of reasons. I love the boho look of this fun piece of clothing, and I also love the ease it provides me when getting dressed in the mornings. Step one. Throw on a tank top and a pair of jeans. Then I throw my kimono on top of that, and I have an outfit on that’s pretty cute head to toe. It doesn’t get much easier than that. And, for a layering piece, a kimono is pretty lightweight, which means it’s perfect for the summer heat.

This particular kimono is definitely a favorite of the ones I have in my closet right now. I picked it up from one of my favorite local boutiques, fab’rik in Franklin. As you may have read in a previous post, I also love tie-dye prints, especially if they are a little different than most, and this one immediately caught my eye when I was in the store the day I got it. I love the light color and the airiness that this fun piece has. And let’s go back to the whole day to night aspect. This look would also look great with a flat sandal for running around during the day and/or throw it on over an all white shorts look for a more casual spin.

Unfortunately, this guy is sold out I believe, but I’ve linked a couple of other great kimonos above. And stay tuned to our blog, as you will be seeing at least one more kimono from me soon.
