On a recent trip to the mall in LA, I noticed that festival wear is beginning to take over. Every store I passed had some sort of kimono in their window! Not traditional kimonos, but rather the airy, festival-style kimonos that I guarantee you’ve seen on my Pinterest boards as well as in-stores. Kimonos are popular because they can be paired with jeans, leggings, skirts, shorts, dresses, and can even be worn over a swimsuit. They’re feminine and versatile, which makes them a staple in my Spring ’14 wardrobe!
Here are my recent kimono obsessions:
Forever 21 (my favorite, love the blue color!)
What’s your favorite way to wear kimonos? Leave your tips for styling in the comments!
I like the first one and the second to last one. These are cute. Didn’t know they were called kimonos..
Haha yes, that’s what all the big retailers are calling them now! I agree, they don’t really resemble actual Kimonos but I like the airy feel of them and the flowy silhouettes!
UGH..
obsessed with the fourth and fifth ones.. they are gorgeous!
