Kimonos have been such a fun trend this summer and are perfect to take you into fall. A really affordable way to create this look is to take one of your favorite scarves and wear it over your shoulders and arms like a shawl. When it's positioned this way, it gives the illusion of a kimono. If you're rocking a crop top or short shorts, it's also a great way to balance the amount of skin you're revealing. This boho chic style will definitely update your look. Plus I'm a big fan of wearing old things in your closet in a new way! This floral scarf is from Target and I'm completely obsessed! I get so many compliments when I wear it and I love to tell people this gem was only $14.99! Woo hoo! So either run out the door (or go online) and get one for yourself or find a vintage scarf hidden at the bottom of your drawer and give it new life!
