#trending | crazy about kimonos

 
probably the easiest, most foolproof piece to transition from summer to fall. i've seen kimonos being called kimoYES because they seem to be everywhere this late hot season. there's still time to pair this with some classic lace shorts or an even more casual look with cute tattered shorts since it's still a blazing 80 degrees here in north carolina.
 
 
this kimono is from a boutique that i have developed a strong love  obsession with. apricot lane, which is located only 15 minutes from my house will probably end up being a frequent place i visit on the weekends when it's rainy & i have nothing better to do other than holding a vase of flowers on our back porch. 

kimono: apricot lane| pink cami: apricot lane | necklace: apricot lane | jeans: AE {similar at apricot lane}

these flowers were ones lee gave to me the night he proposed so i had to include them in today's post thought because this bride to be is still in omg let's talk about the wedding all day & night mode. sorry. however, kimonos equaling floral & fringe - hello! sign me up for that. one look at this piece in the store and i knew i had to have. i can't wait to pair this with a cute scarf & some boots as the temperatures get lower.
