The trend of kimonos is a casual look with beautiful patterns. These are ideal any time of year.
This weekend Cents of Style is selling their gorgeous and fashionable kimonos for $7 off! This means as you check out, the prices will be either $9.95 or $12.95 in the cart. What a deal, right? Be sure to use the CODE: BEACHCOVER to receive your discount.
Now how would you, as someone over fifty use a kimono? If you are like me that spends a lot of time near the water, you could use a kimono as a swimsuit cover up. They are light, long in length and stylish for those of us over 50.
I personally like the loose fit. You know, it hides all those bumps and lumps we have “earned” over the years. A kimono looks beautiful on any body type.
Creating your wardrobe for Fashion Over 50. Try Using Kimonos as an accessory to add femininity. With the flowing shear fabric and a few added tassels, you can dress up your jeans, skirts and dresses. And again-you can wear them as a beach cover all Summer long.
I love all of the various prints from Cents of Style. Each is unique and a great way to add to your wardrobe without spending a ton of money.
Wearing a kimono also adds a bit of drama and flare, without over doing it. It is fun to add a little drama sometimes, isn’t it? You don’t look like you are trying to look young-BUT fashionable.
As a reminder, the Kimono sale runs TODAY, July 8th through Sunday, July 10th. using the Code: BEACHCOVER is the only way you can receive the $7 off of your kimono purchase from Cents of Style.
Have fun with your purchase of your kimono(s). I am excited to order mine right now…

During Fall I love to blend orange and blue together. The combination is soothing and a beautiful contrast from the typical oranges, reds and golden colors. You will be inspired from the blue ideas, crafts and design style from this post. Incorporating Blue Into Fall Decor has become one of my most clever ways decorate.
Since my husband and I are now empty-nesters, I thought I would use my creative juices to for Intimate Thanksgiving At Home Decorations.
