Kimono Style! (Take 2)

28 Feb

Last Spring I wrote a Kimono Style post sharing my love for the light and airy pieces.  This year the kimono is going to be HUGE, I’ve been trying to tell the world for the last year and people are catching on! Last year’s post is getting so much traffic but most of the links are sold out since it’s been so long. I’ve decided to do today’s post and include shoppable links to plenty of kimonos that are available NOW! I have included petite,plus size and tall size kimonos as well….No fashionista left behind here! Ready, set shop! These are just some of my favorites, but there are many more at Asos (one of my favorite online shopping destinations, They have petite, plus size and tall sizes for many of their clothes!)

P.S. Throw your kimono over whatever the heck you want! They look great with jeans, shorts, skirts, over dresses etc!

Happy shopping,

xo, Journey

Milan Fashion Week! Gucci F/W’14!

19 Feb

Milan Fashion Week has kicked off with a bang and the Gucci Fall/Winter 2014 collection has set the bar pretty high! Frida Giannini definitely brought it!!!!!! She channeled the “good ol’ Gucci” days with a 60’s/70’s inspired collection that included mod minis and boots galore! There was no lack of pretty pastels and the sharp tailoring we have come to expect from the Italian design house!! I really love this collection!
