One of the things bloggers, whether its fashion, beauty, food or lifestyle, struggle with sometimes is that ubiquitous writer’s block. It happens to all of us, it happens to the best of us. When God forbid, there is just nothing to talk about. Hours after hours of trying, its just one big blank page of nothing.
But there is also one thing bloggers struggle with that I don’t see being talked as much and I’m sure this happens to a lot of bloggers/writers as well. Sometimes, there are just too much to talk about and you just don’t know where to begin.
Take for instance these past few weeks. We just finished Ottawa Fashion Week SS 2014 season (thorough review from the @OFW_LIVE front row to follow) this weekend and on top of that, it has been one whirlwind romance with fashion as our calendar was packed with one fabulous event after another, TV appearances, editorial photo shoot for a fashion magazine, getting featured online, etc., which relatively translates to – a whole lot of amazing outfits we can’t wait to show you.
One of these is this!
The Coral Printed Kimono Dress from the much anticipated Banana Republic – ISSA London Collaboration Collection. If you remember, I featured the Issa Collection Three-Quarter Sleeve Wrap-Tie Dress before, a doppelganger of the famous royal engagement dress worn by Kate Middleton from the same designer. I must say, though this is unusual cut for me, I am quite loving the print, the colours and the outrageous size of the sleeves!

The colour of this #BRXISSA Kimono dress would make for one fantastic transition piece to fall and perhaps with the right shoes and warm essentials, this could make its way to winter as well.
Would you wear a KIMONO dress in the fall and winter?
