Spring Toppers – 20 Ways to Wear a Kimono or Maxi Cardigan

I simply adore a long cardigan. Be it a duster, kimono, cozy long knit or vest – they all make me happy! A signature piece, is an item that you absolutely feel your best in. Like with animal print and aviators, any outfit is better, when it’s topped of with a long dramatic piece – it’s icing on the cake. Perhaps it is my body type. I am short waisted, therefore long pieces tend to elongate my body. Sounds strange I know, coming from someone who is 5’7″, but a short waist can find itself on a woman of any height. Or could it be the drama? I love a little splash with every outfit, a piece that can stand on it’s own – which is why I love statement accessories. Or, as some of my friends have pointed out, maybe I’m not comfortable showing every curve (or lack of). Whatever the reason, this is one piece I know how to style. I’ve narrowed it down to 20 looks for today, but if you are looking for more, pop on over to my @AskSuzanneBell Instagram Feed (HERE), where you’ll find many more looks. 

Let’s take a look!

The Kimono

A fabulous must-have spring/summer piece, I wear my kimonos over everything from denim, dresses, and jumpsuits to swim suit looks.

Maxi Cardigan

Yes, these are long and perhaps not for everyone – maybe because they get caught in car doors…

Long Cardigan

AKA Butt Covers, I have a collection of these babies for all 4 seasons.
