Myself: To work? Like a Business Kimono? That’s not a thing.

I’m making my first comment on this site to say – I love this look on you! And I love the creativity. Such a good reminder for all of us to see the possibilities of shape and colour, and not just say “kimono for work? no”. 🙂
Yes, very boho-for-business. You gotta come share it later at Vis Monday! xox
Thanks! xox
I LOVE business kimono! It’s definitely a thing now and you are rocking it!
It’s a super cute thing!
Business kimono ftw! Now I’m definitely gonna do a kimono week in honor of you, m’dear! You look stunning!
This is a great combination – the structured buttondown and flowy kimono just work so well together! 🙂
Really a beautiful outfit! Congrats on making this combo, ’cause you look brilliant in it. Business casual has really come on in great ways, hasn’t it? Very cool.
What s great look! Love the pop of pink and how you’ve styled the kimono! And of course what makes this outfit is your beautiful smile! Lovely!
Gracey, you are amazing. Don’t ever change. <3
