Flipping Fringe

   
    
    
    
    
    
 

I received the cutest boots recently from a company called Not Rated Footwear.  I’m such a fan of fringe boots! I was just about to re-sole another pair I had, then these showed up on my doorstep.  I love the color, the size of the heel, the zipper detailing, and how the fringe wraps around the back of the heel.  I totally recommend checking out their collection and if you see a pair you have to have, use the code “KARI JANE” at check out and you can receive 20% off your purchase!  The name of the boots I am wearing are called “Flipping Fringe.”  My peasant top is made by Billabong and my husband got it for me for Christmas last year from Tillys. They have a lot of peasant style tops and dresses right now that I definitely recommend checking out! I was in a Hot Topic store recently shopping for gifts for my sister and randomly decided to try on their jeans.  I was pleasantly surprised with how well they fit! These black ones are their “super skinny” style and they’ve definitely become my new favorite jeans. My hat is an old one from H&M but you can find similar ones for an affordable rate at Forever 21. Have fun and be inspired today! Always remember that you are beautiful, loved, and you are enough!

Aloha Kimono – Made By Kari Jane

   
    
    
    
 

Kimonos have definitely been a favorite of mine the last couple years.  I recently got my sewing machine fixed and felt inspired to make my own Kimono! Dan and I are planning on going to Hawaii this year and I thought it would be fun to make a colorful Hawaiian inspired Kimono.  I will be adding the Aloha Kimono to my etsy shop soon, but just wanted to share the first one I made with everyone!  I took inspiration from the fit and design of each of my favorite kimonos in my closet and came up with my own design. I wanted it to be long, oversized, very light, flowy, and with fringe.  This kimono will be perfect for Hawaii!  I will be on the hunt for other fabrics and colors and will be adding a selection to my etsy shop soon.  Can’t wait!
