Re: Jacket Kimonos - Love them or hate them?

I bought a couple last year.  One is kind of like a cocoon type.  I think they are very pretty and they make a simple tank top look dressy and are easy and cool for summer.

I have a kimono from Johnny Was (yes, they have a great selection in so many color combos) that I like wearing with jeans and tees.  I have seen a few women wearing them, but not many.  I think it's a great look when going out to lunch or somewhere where you just want to elevate your look a little.  Nicer than a jean jacket (which I like also, by the way),

 

 


@Tessa Mendoza I bought the Helena Kimono from Johnny Was.  $80 on sale.  My heart went pitter patter, Lol.

 

Then they sent me an email saying they had misjudged the popularity and it was not available.  They had not provided me their usual high quality of service and they were sorry and would do better in the future.  But no kimono for me.

 

Oh gosh, the angst.

I have two of Colleen's from past years and have only worn one of them once.

 

They look lovely on the hanger, but I had the same problem as you.  It kept slipping down and I had to constantly readjust it.

 

Thinking of giving them away.
