This outfit is a perfect mix of fun and sophistication that makes my heart skip a beat! I'm absolutely in love with how the crisp white V neck top creates a clean canvas for layering, while those distressed red shorts add just the right amount of edgy summer flair. The showstopper has to be that gorgeous sheer floral kimono in moody blacks and pinks it's the kind of piece that makes everyone ask 'Where did you get that?'
Let's talk about making this ensemble sing! I'd recommend keeping your makeup sun kissed and glowy with that beautiful NYX 'Away We Glow' highlighter. The red rose choker adds such a romantic touch I'm obsessed with how it ties in with the shorts and creates this gorgeous vertical line that elongates your neck.
You're going to want to wear this everywhere, trust me! It's perfect for:
I've worn similar looks and here's what I've learned pack a small safety pin in that adorable 'Saint Moi' straw bag for kimono emergencies, and maybe throw in some blotting papers for those sultry summer days. The red mules with their statement embroidery are surprisingly comfortable, but I'd suggest keeping fold up flats in your bag for extended walking.
This outfit is a treasure trove of versatile pieces! The kimono would look incredible over a slip dress, while the shorts could edge up a basic white tee. I particularly love how each piece can transition from day to night the accessories are really what make it adaptable.
While the kimono might be your splurge piece (and totally worth it!), you can save on the white top by checking out basics from H&M or Uniqlo. The shorts could be DIY'd from old jeans if you're feeling crafty! Look for similar straw bags at local markets they often have charming options at better prices.
To keep this look fresh: hand wash the kimono to preserve those gorgeous florals, spot clean the straw bag, and wash those red shorts separately to prevent color bleeding. The mules will last longer with protective soles added by your cobbler.
What I love most about this outfit is how it manages to be both comfortable and confidence boosting. The flowing kimono provides coverage while keeping you cool, and the shorts have just enough stretch to keep you comfortable all day. It's the kind of outfit that makes you stand a little taller and smile a little brighter!
The red elements in this outfit channel confidence and passion, while the floral kimono adds a touch of romantic whimsy. It's perfect for those days when you want to feel both powerful and feminine I like to think of it as your secret weapon for making an unforgettable impression!
The way the red shorts play with the rose choker is genius! I tried something similar but with white shorts and it just didn't have the same impact. You've really nailed the color coordination here
Has anyone tried these mules for a full day of walking? I adore how they look but I'm worried about comfort
That kimono is everything! Would it work over a black swimsuit for a beach day? I need styling advice for my upcoming vacation
You'll want to be careful with those distressed shorts if you're planning to sit on light colored surfaces. Learned this the hard way at my friend's white couch!
The NYX highlighter gives such a beautiful glow. I use it with setting spray and it lasts all day in summer heat
What about swapping the white top for a black cami? Would that be too dark with the kimono?
My straw bag similar to this one started unraveling after one season. Anyone know how to prevent that?
Those mules would also look fantastic with straight leg jeans and the kimono for a more casual weekend look
The proportions here are just perfect. The loose kimono balances the fitted top and shorts so well
I actually prefer this with gold jewelry instead of the choker. The rose detail feels a bit too matchy with the red shorts for my taste
Where can we find a similar kimono in plus sizes? This style would look amazing on everyone
Adding a belt to cinch the kimono would create a totally different silhouette. What do you all think?
The Saint Moi bag is cute but I found mine gets dirty so quickly. Any cleaning tips?
Such a versatile outfit! I wore my kimono to both a beach day and dinner just by changing the shorts to a slip dress
Would silver accessories work instead of gold with this? The embroidery on the mules looks silvery
This outfit screams summer brunch to me! Just need to add mimosas
