Wear a kimono this summer

Add a Kimono to your outfits this summer

OoohKay 🙂

It’s been a while since I wrote some yummy faith and/or modest related posts… I’ve been itching to get back to writing so badly as articles have been percolating in my head. I rushed this past weekend to get my office and our living room set up! (But that’s my next post so … watch for it ..) 🙂

Did you read all the way to the end of my last post for my surprise? … did you read it? If you didn’t – you cheated!! Haha 😉

I had announced my new Amazon Store that I put together for you… with some modest clothing options for you!

And I wanted to introduce you to another fashion item I’ve fallen in love with this year. I couldn’t wait to share with you because well, ladies… this can make your modest outfits up a notch or two!!!

Remember when I wrote in my last post I said most blah outfit problems are because the outfit is not complete until you get all your accessories on too. (you can read that whole post here Anatomy of an Outfit)

Kimonos are

  • soo summery, <insert dreamy face here>
  • act as an accessory making your outfit look complete and I dare say…. wait for it…
  • they help make your outfits CASUAL.

A common complaint from those that wear dresses and skirts all the time. “I always feel “dressed up”. Do you feel this too?

Introducing KIMONOS

Kimono outfits

YES!!!

Here is one of my first ones – so colorful and loose – makes me feel like I’m living down south… haha 🙂 And now you can get this one right here.

Here’s another one – can never go wrong with ” the blues” –  Liam insisted we have a photo together here so I’m wearing this kimono with my stretch denim skirt from New creation Apparel and a white t-shirt from Pennington’s. And YAY – You can get this Kimono here in my Amazon store.

And here it is again with my sleeveless dress I’ve been loving this summer. (With my enlarged liver some days my stomach is sensitive to tight clothing.) I’m hoping to make a pattern from this dress this summer? You can get this Kimono here.

This one is actually a shirt from Walmart made from chiffon that I wore as a kimono or jacket… it’s so light and airy for summer and I’m in love with things that flutter in the breeze. I’ve paired it with a Lane Bryant lime colored tank and my stretch denim skirt from New Creation Apparel.

This outfit I’m wearing a denim skirt from Cotton Ginny with a Giant Tiger extra soft heathered pink shirt and this Kimono from Additionelle that is so light and airy one of the first I got last year.

This one is a really Special one – all made from lace ! This navy jacket drapes so nicely as you can see. It’s a little warmer than the other kimonos and I have one in White and Navy both from Wish (for only $6 !) yes $6 Here I paired it with a Lularoe perfect tee and a stretch denim skirt from New Creation Apparel.

Lastly this kimono type jacket is from Ardene and I picked it up just for fun hoping it might fit. (Ardene is not plus sized!) But it worked great and was a perfect color to go with denim! I’m wearing it here with my stretch denim skirt from New Creation Apparel and a v-neck T-shirt from Pennington’s.

So what do you think? Are you ready to add this fashion statement to your modest wardrobe?

Hit reply and send me your pictures !!

With MUCH love
