Another cute kimono

love that this Japanese inspired floral / blossoms print looks quite authentic...

 would look cute with black jeans...

looks like it has peach / blush pink in the background, or is that gold?

this edelweiss white bag with handle would look cute...

Edelweiss choker necklace set...

right away, I want to team these blush peach pink jeans...

but these neon pink jeans would also be perfect...

and these black skinny jeans...

Charcoal shorts

grey vest with black buttons

black and white striped camisole tank top

this H&M black crinkle camisole top

as a contrast, this grey boatneck top...

or I would put it over this neutral blush pink long sleeve tee...

this pale blush pink cropped sweatshirt...

for a short sleeve top, this black marled tee...

or this charcoal slub tee...

and accessorized with these black clover earrings...

 and this black enamel floral necklace...

or this sakura cherry blossom and sparrow necklace...

also looks great with stripes...

and mixes well with other prints...

and this grey / black / white edelweiss bag would team well...

 these black peeptoe ankle booties...

these gingery coral faux suede mules...

for metallics, these rose gold fisherman sandals...

or these rose gold mules...

this Kleancolor Salsa nail polish...

and definitely these frosted pink sunglasses...

The black iris

these really gorgeous deep amethyst purple and light lavender irises suddenly sprouted up in my backyard that look a lot like this photo I found browsing the internet...

I hadn't really noticed them before until after I got a great deal on this pretty black and white, quite Japanese looking iris print kimono. It's as if the Universe acknowledged that I loved irises and somehow they manifested...

it's like a batik style print -- not sure if it's real batik yet I can see some crackling -- made in Indonesia and quite like a yukata robe.

I like how they've teamed it with a tee and fitted bottoms like tights, but I would also team the black iris kimono with a simple black dress, like this black keyhole neckline dress...

Or just this simple H&M black crinkle camisole top

 and I would definitely accessorize with these black clover earrings...

and this black enamel floral choker necklace...

Interestingly, when I first saw the irises growing I thought they were black irises because the purple was so dark from where I was standing. Nope, not quite... But they're HUGE!
