By Patty Goff


There are so many ways in which a person can accessorize and express himself. For girls and women, the usual go to when you want the world to know who you are is by the way you dress. It is also used to express your current feeling and your vibe for the day. There are times when the weather and temperature would change, but it is interesting to note that women still find a way to work around and even use situations like this to dress up.

Today, there are a lot of ways to put on an outfit. There are even different styles and themes. Fashion has a way of reinventing itself and creating something new while drawing inspiration from the traditional. One of the best example for this is the rise of a new fashion trend which is the kimono style cardigan.

Japanese women were the first ones to sport this get up since it is their national dress. But the kimono of today has a lighter weight. And now it is usually used as a jacket.

The thing about fashion is that it never stops on one trend alone. People find ways on how they could reinvent a certain piece. Before these kimonos were just plain and sheer fabric. But now you can see the various prints designs and cuts that it has. And because it is a jacket, you need to find other pieces so that you can complete your fashion ensemble.

This piece is flexible. And even if it was originally created for the summer vibe, the way you style it could make it look like it was created for the other seasons as well. It even has the capacity to make you look taller and sleeker. You just have to make sure that you are wearing the proper match.

It can be used with everyday clothing. A simple pair of jeans and shirt could have a more sophisticated look if you put on a cardigan with it. But to successfully wear this look, you need to make sure that the under shirt is not too loose. The color is also important so that you would not look too over dressed.

The monochromatic theme of the jeans and the shirt will be countered delicately by the design of the kimono. If you want to wear something colored for the bottom, this is also possible as long as it does not clash with your upper outfit. This piece would give you a more relaxed look.

If you pair it with jeans or pants, you can have the option of wearing heeled shoes or flats depending on your mood. It would also depend heavily on where you are going and what you are going to do. Another option is combining the ensemble with a skirt. All kinds of skirt would match with this piece provided that it would not contrast with your kimono. This means that if you are going for this look, everything underneath it should be plain. You would let the cardigan do the styling and add the texture to the whole ensemble.

Aside from the skirts and pants, one piece and dresses are also suitable pairs for this particular clothing. You can achieve two distinct looks depending on the kind of dress that you would wear. One is the relaxed vibe which can be achieved by paring a cardigan with a flowing dress. You can also go for chic and polished by putting on a sleek dress that would show your figure.
