Altered Kimono

April 24, 2014 by suzanne carillo

This was the start of the kimono obsession, a Polyvore set I created quite a while ago…

 

Boho Mojo

I blame the entire obsession on this photo.
 
Sea of shoes kimono
sea of shoes
 
 
For an item like this, quite trendy, I couldn't see myself shelling out the $190 they originally wanted for the one I fell in love with. Instead I managed to pick up this one for $19 from TJ Maxx and decided to alter it.
 
How to wear a kimono with sequins
 
Granted it isn't silk, but polyester. That is okay. I was less worried ruining the fabric by stitching on all the fringe and doodads. 
 
Altered kimono style
 
I added on some velvet ribbon, the fringe and the pom pom fringe on the sleeves.
 
Altered kimono fashion
 
Jeans, Kimono – TJ Maxx, Booties – Nordstrom Off The Rack, Belt, Sequin Top & Bag – Consignment or Thrift, Watch- JORD, bracelet – handmade
 
Sequin top silk fringed kimono booties
 
I stuck with my original idea of little booties and sequins. 
 
Jord wooden watch handmade owl bracelet
 
The handbag and belt are from consignment stores.
 
How to wear a kimono with jeans
 
The amazing sunglasses are borrowed from my husband's stash. He is going to freak when he sees me wearing these. He only buys high end sunglasses. Mine are all $15 versions. Don't worry honey! I put them right back where I found them when I was done with them : ) 
 
Jord wooden watch fashion watch
 
If you haven't entered  my give-away yet for the JORD watch similar to the one I'm wearing here there is still time.  I make the draw Monday April 28th.
 
This is kimono styling #2. 
 
This was my #1…
