Cause you're hot then you're cold

August is full of hot temperatures, which normally means that every facility you enter is freezing cold! Whether it be at your job, a movie theater, or shopping center the AC unit is definitely working hard this summer. Trying to style an outfit for these two different climates is a complete pain in the you know what. Normally we just force ourselves to wear jeans/pants to keep our legs warm while we're indoors. The problem is once you set foot outside in that attire, you're suddenly battling a heat stroke. If you decide to wear a skirt/shorts everything is A-okay, until you are stuck inside the refrigerator that you call an office building, rubbing away goose bumps. This is frustrating, but I believe there is a solution. The printed kimono is perfect paired with shorts (as shown above) or even a nice dress. The vibrant patterns provide a perfect accessory around your waist when outside and a perfect cover up for when you are getting too cold inside. 

Side Note - Kimonos are great for women of every shape. They're loose enough to hide certain parts of your body, but when belted can also accentuate all of your womanly curves.
