Wild Free

 

Breezy days, green grass, and longer hours. The summer months are upon us, 225 dwellers, and I for one am ecstatic.

Bohemian styles are a bit more difficult to pull off in colder temperatures (or is that just me?), so when warm weather comes around I get so excited to break out my loose, flowy pieces. I’ve shown this kimono blouse here before, but this is a more formal take on the trend. Paired with a delicate lace dress, the whimsical aspect of the look is kept intact. The semi-structured frock can be paired with something very strong, like a military jacket, or something loose, like this kimono.

Keeping balance in an outfit is always important, especially for my fellow petite ladies! Because I went with the flowy-on-flowy look, I paired it with my ankle boots to toughen it up a bit.

How do you balance out structure and flow in your looks?
