the traveling kimono.


never would have imagined myself in a kimono. but there's always a first for everything, right?

my friend toni asked if i wanted to join this kimono styling challenge with 2 other bloggers and if you know me... you know i never turn a challenge down! 


toni purchased this snazzy kimono-shawl from urban outfitters and hadn't ever put it to use. i should totally start doing this with clothes i've never worn... pass it along to friends for styling inspiration! brilliant! 

check out the links at the bottom of this post to see how the other gals styled the traveling kimono.


... and special thanks to my sis-in-law shelby for snapping these photos. here's an outtake of me in my natural state. laughing awkwardly... lol.

  1. I love the way you styled it! Those glasses seem to really complement it. I'm glad we all went different ways with this kimono because it gives me some ideas on how to wear it in the future. :) And I love the laughing picture! Very cute! <3

    1. Haha. Thanks for including me in this! It was fun "styling outside of the box"... and I need to drop the kimono back in the mail to you. It's all packaged up, just sitting on my counter! Lol :)
