Ethereal Lace


When I first saw this lace kimono (in Forever 21 of all places!) it looked so vintage and bohemian to me. I grabbed it not seriously considering purchasing it but, I wore it around the store and liked it more and more. The stitching detail on the kimono is well-done for what it's worth. It is incredibly lightweight and makes me feel more dressed up than I am without it. I sized up than my "normal" size to have an increased oversized effect. I've been wearing this piece a bit more than I would normally would since it's just so gosh darn pretty that I can't help but want to wear it more.

  1. The kimono seems very Free People style to me. It's a nice piece to add to your wardrobe in spring, especially since I know the city can get cold even when the rest of the bay is warm.

  2. I think Kimono's are so cool! No two are exactly alike. All the fabulous prints, lengths and styles. They're awesome.

  8. Gorgeous! I saw a fringed kimono in Marshalls of all places this weekend. It took everything I had not to grab it. Now I might go back . . . I love the pretty element of the lace one!

  15. I am so in love with white lace this year. It is so refreshing, delicate and feminine. Your kimono is chic and sweet at the same time. Totally unique piece.

    Thanks so much for sharing your thought/story :) It's always great to hear how all of us women go through that phase and what we have learned.

  20. Sometimes you can score amazing lace items at Forever 21! I have a blouse I bought two years ago and it is one of the best tops I've ever bought from there. I love that kimono and it definitely has a cute boho vibe! <3
