Colours and stones

You know how much I love colours and prints so naturally when I saw this kimono I was instantly attracted to it. I took it off the rack and held it while I was looking around the store. When I was done looking, I tried it on and I felt good in it. The fabric is soft, the silhouette is flattering and the fact that it is so colourful means that I can combine it with many different existing garments in my closet. However I was not sure if it was something I needed it. So I was thinking about it and I was really tempted to take it back to its original position and leave it, my friend who was with me told me "I think you should take it, it is totally you". And then I realised she was right so I bought it.

That is why it is better to go shopping accompanied by someone and not alone. Sometimes they push you to make the right decision so thank you Karla ;)

Fringe and crossover

Sales are a perfect excuse to go shopping. Of course sometimes you can get carried away and buy things that you don't necessarily love and you won't really wear just because they are very cheap so beware! Try to buy pieces that are really worth the space in your closet and try looking for the things you really wanted all season but you couldn't afford or you really didn't think they were worth paying the original prices. I found this kimono on my summer sales hunt in H&M and I thought it would be a great addition to my kimono collection, especially since it was 75% off!

Butterflies and flowers

As I have said in the past mixing and matching your prints is a yes-yes for me so I include it regularly on my outfits. Why don't you just give it a try? If you are scared it will look too much just follow my lead on this one and only mix them on the upper half of your outfit keeping the rest print free.

Flowers, polka dots and the Beagles

Although I don't own many pieces of clothing in yellow, I do believe it is a colour that can pick up your mood so don't be afraid of it! If a t-shirt is too much for you, pick an accessory or a nail polish just to give you a boost during hard days!
