One of my favorite memories from our time in Hawaii was walking along the Wailea Beach trail every morning as the sun would rise. I’m a night owl, always have been, but something about Hawaii always seems to turn me into a morning person.
I loved getting a few miles in while the world seemed to still be asleep. So peaceful. Plus, all the cats along the way were SO cute ….
The morning of my birthday, Myles asked if I wanted him to take some pictures for the blog. Of course I couldn’t say NO, especially because I’d been hoping to catch some shots of the sunrise with my DSLR.
I had a few minutes to get myself together before the sun came up, and I decided to throw on the easiest outfit I could think of…..
Kimonos are my jam – year round. They’re super easy to style and can be worn so many ways. I love throwing them on over a plain tank/tee with shorts or jeans, but also as a cover up when I don’t feel like wearing a dress.
Plus, there’s something about the flowiness of a kimono that looks so effortlessly chic….
Floral kimono / Favorite jean shorts (AG on major sale!) / White tee / Sunnies (favorites!)
It’s safe to say, I wore this kimono nonstop during our two week stay in Hawaii. The price point at under $16 was such a steal. You definitely don’t need to splurge on this style my friends! Save your $$ for a few mai tai’s 😉

I’ve linked a few other kimonos above that I’m loving. Show Me Your Mumu makes beautiful prints and the quality is SO good too. Which reminds me, does anyone remember when I wrote this post a few years back about styling kimonos? Time flies!
Beautiful pictures! You have great photographer!
