I went in to Target to get a new DVD (which had sold out) and as I passed the women’s fashion section I saw this black lace kimono. I had seen it previously but had held off purchasing it. But on Saturday I relented because there weren’t many sizes left and I reasoned the purchase made use of the time I took to go there even though I didn’t get what I was after.
This lace kimono comes in cream, but I purchased the black because I think it’s more versatile and would work as a great layer over a cocktail dress in Autumn. The tassel hem adds a bit of 1920’s flare to the kimono.
When I wore it on Sunday, I went with the monochrome look and layered it over a black tee and white capris from Katies. A drop pendant necklace was all that was needed to bring the outfit together. I can see these kimonos working well with distressed denim. I am in need of a pair of distressed jeans but have held off as I start my new lifestyle plan to lose my baby weight. No point buying new jeans that will eventually sag at the bum.
The kimono is $35 and available in store and online. I’m considering buying the cream one too.
Do you like to wear lace? Have you jumped on the kimono/cape bandwagon yet?
