Trend Alert: Kimono TopsSheer, Kimono-Inspired Tops for Winter
Every time I find a new style trend I tend to get very excited and want to buy anything and everything associated with that trend immediately! Well, my most recent was no different. I spotted our assistant women’s buyer, Kylie, wearing this Kimono inspired-fringed-sweater-top thing. (I fall in love with anything fringe.) Well she told me that we [SWELL] were going to start carrying some very lust-worthy kimono styles this winter season and some very reasonable priced ones at that. My first though: “START SAVING ALL YOUR MONEY!” Looks like the wait was well worth it…they’ve finally arrived….and are even more fun than I imagined. I think you’ll enjoy them as well. Read on for a list of my top picks. (more…)
Mom Was Right About Sunscreen (Okay, and maybe some other stuff too)
Dear 16 year old me,
Don’t worry too much about the outfit you are going to wear; you’ll look back and say “How awful! How did I EVER wear that!” Try and have as much fun as you can because, as much as it sucks to admit, mom was right about being an adult. And she was right about wearing sunscreen as well. And hey! Just because it says SPF 4 doesn’t mean it counts as protection!
