    Basic to Brilliant

    Throwing on a basic white tee and a pair of classic jean shorts is the easy way to get ready for the day. Take this look from “seen it before” to "ooh, where'd you get that?" with a presh printed kimono. Brilliant!

    Keeping It Neutral

    If you’re looking to try the trendy piece but you’re a little nervous about diving right in, start out with a basic kimono. Kimonos are still super cute in neutrals, especially if you experiment with length and different detailing. This cardi-meets-kimono sweater and has crochet details, so it’s a natural transition into kimono land!

    Dress It Up

    If you’re really ready to make a statement, sport your kimono with a classic dress on a big night out. A pop of color makes this elegant ensemble stand out from all the other LBDs. Remember, you don’t always need heels to be dressy. Stay comfy with a pair of flats with unexpected detailing.
