A kaftan is the big coverup and the best.
I see that all the fashion sites and blogs are starting to think new season/fall… I can’t keep up and I am well and truly in slow summer mode.
So no winter-what-to-wear-talk here.
Kaftans are the best invention… the three “c”s… cool, comfortable and chic.
Worn long over a swimming costume or as a glamorous statement for evening. In the day, perfect for hanging out.
There is a freedom with kaftans, that matches the esprit of summer… they just seem right.
No worrying about too tight, too short or too anything else… Kaftans breathe and so can I.
Bolder prints and colours that I would never normally wear work brilliantly… with a pair of classic espadrilles or even havianas.
Imagine at night with these fine strappy fontanela booties… Wonderful.
In Italy I wore mine all day, ever day… I felt just fine… xv
