très chic: track pants


this month's tres chic is focusing on the track pant trend. i'm pretty obsessed as you might remember from when i talked about them here and here. so andrea and lauren and i thought it would be fun to show you how we would all wear them for this month's post. 

1. you can find all my outfit details here. i paired my fav pants with a great printed sweatshirt that i can't wait to wear over and over again. 

2. lauren's look is adorable of course! i want to wear her track pants every day - they just look so comfortable, don't they? i love that she paired them with the summer bootie, they are one of my favorites to wear! be sure to check out her blog for all her outfit details! 

3. andrea's track pants are amazing right! she found them on gilt, and i am so jealous. i love the gray fabric with the leather paneled front. easy to wear, but look impeccably chic, right? also who doesn't love a great denim jacket (especially a vintage one). i adore how she funked up the look even more with great accessories! read all about her look here

what do you think about this month's tres chic post? did you like our trend? let me know what you think we should talk about next month!

tres chic: kimono


today i bring you the first of many tres chic posts! two of my fab blogger girlfriends thought it would be fun to pick a trend and style it three ways! today we are bringing you our favorite summer trend: the kimono. check out what the girls said about styling their kimonos.

1. this is lauren from classy and fab girl, a fellow kc blogger who also shares a love for fashion. lauren styled her light and airy kimono with kelly green shorts and layered on the gold accessories. this kimono is quickly becoming her summer staple! she found it at the new fortuity boutique at the country club plaza.

outfit details:
 kimono: fortuity | shorts: gap similar here | sandals: gap similar here 
bracelet: stella & dot | rings: stella & dot  
2. remember andrea from style my way? you met her last month when we did a blog swap. andrea's is an actual kimono that her aunt brought back from japan in 1985! it was a styling challenge but it all came together with white denim crops and a basic tank. throw on gobs of gold jewels, a pair of wedge sandals, and a basket inspired clutch, and you have a simply lovely summery look! 

outfit details:
kimono: gift (similar styles 1/2/3) | t
ank: loft | jeans: loft similar here 
sandals: stuart weitzman similar here 
clutch: kate spade similar here | necklaces: the zoe collective/bauble bar/gift
 bracelets: j.crew, ralph lauren | sunnies: marc by marc jacobs similar here
lip color: ruby opera l'oreal extraordinaire (℅ people style watch) 

3. this look might seem familiar to you, since it was my outfit from yesterday's post. i adore this look and i really can't wait to wear it again. the kimono is a fun trend you can wear so many ways! it's so great to wear casual or dressed up. it's definitely a great trendy piece to give your wardrobe a quick update without having to spend too much.

outfit details:
kimono: windsor (in store) similar here and here | boyfriend jeans: madewell (old) similar here and here | top: ruby rouge (new) similar here and here | wedges:franchesca's | clutch: stella and dot (sold out) similar here and here | sunnies: ralph | necklaces: nashelle and j.crew (old) similar here and here | earrings: stella and dot | bracelets: j.crewstella and dot and j.crew | ring: david yurman
