Kimono !

2014 Spring Trend : Kimono ! 

A new trend that has been spotted all over the fashion scene is Kimono. Kimono is actually a traditional Japanese garment.  Here is a fun fact about traditional Kimono:   The typical woman's kimono outfit consists of twelve or more separate pieces that are worn, matched, and secured in prescribed ways, and the assistance of licensed professional kimono dressers may be required!

The kimono that I'm talking about does not require 12 pieces ! The "modern" kimono is light and functions kind of like a cardigan. Light, functional and with a lot of gorgeous prints and textures, Kimono will make an excellent spring and summer essential.
