There\u2019s a place for all kinds of toppers in your wardrobe. But on those sultry days when you want to add something light and pretty to the mix, try an airy kimono.

The beauty of the kimono is that some are long and lean,\njust like your favorite dress silhouettes. You could easily throw one on over a\npair of sleek leggings and a matching top, then belt it to create definition.\nThe result? A makeshift dress with unique vibes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a shorts companion<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You never know when you\u2019ll need to perk up a pair of jeans and a simple top. When a bright handbag or a statement necklace<\/a> alone won\u2019t do, turn to the ever-dependable kimono. This one offers both length and a flower-power print in one sleek package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a skirt topper<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Told you it was versatile. Play with lengths by pairing a long kimono with a shorter skirt or dress. The kimono adds a cohesive touch in much the same way that a blazer might, but with a little more levity and a much more relaxed, down-to-earth approach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
