I LOVE KIMONOS. I need to wear cooler type items as I’m fast approaching 50. Clingy clothes no longer work for me. Kimonos are just so elegant. This is another great find at IVY Boutique in San Mateo. The kimono was thoughtfully made by a woman, Rose local in SF. I’m going to pair it with these beautiful earrings designed by IVY’s owner, Chelsey. You can wear a kimono as loungwear hanging around home, or with jeans out and about. I would say not to wear anything too baggy on the bottom as the kimono is loose. It will make you look shapeless. As for the shirt underneath, wear a more solid color if it has a pattern as most of them do. You don’t want to have too much competing visuals. The kimono should be the eye catcher alone. 😊
