If there is ever a time when you need to make a statement, a lasting impression, or create a stir when you make an entrance, I have the perfect item for you! Can you guess what it is? Lol! I have to tell you; this is one of my favorite clothing items I’ve ever worn on the blog! It is stunning, it is vibrant, and it will look great dressed up or down.

Before I tell you about this gorgeous kimono/ruana, I will tell you about the textured sweater tank and my jewelry. Here is the post where I wore the same tank with my quilted moto jacket (also on sale for almost $50.00 off), and this shows you how versatile this tank is.

I love the multi-layered necklace since it takes all of the guesswork out of layering. However, it has already been snatched up by other shoppers, so I’ll just link to a bunch of jewelry that is just as awesome. If you’ve never tried Chico’s jewelry, you will be impressed by the quality and style.

I can see myself wearing this gorgeous Peacock Ruana out to dinner with your husband or friends. This Ruana would also look fabulous for a high school reunion; we always want to make a splash when we attend those. Lol! You can bet that the next vacation I go on, this will be going along on the trip with me.

The Peacock Ruana is on the expensive side, but it is $60.00 off with the sale! This wearable piece of art is something that you will love for years to come. At the end of this post, I will be adding the items that I have on order from this sale, plus other things that are a good deal that I might already have.

Oh, by the way, the print continues to the back, so you look terrific coming or going!!! I ordered the S/M, and it is plenty roomy enough for me.

I love the fit of these 360 So Slimming Juliet pants. They are full-length pants instead of ankle-length, and I like having both options in my closet. These fit me so well, and the hidden panel that the So Slimming line is known for has gotten an upgrade in these pants. The Hidden Fit panel now goes all the way around for a flawless figure from every angle. Plus, the diagonal faux front pockets accentuate your shape with angles going toward the waist. I am wearing a size 1 in INK.

You probably see me wearing these nude wedge heels all of the time, but just in case you’ve missed them, I’ll add the link. And, they do run TTS.

    You are silly

  2. Oh, this kimono is so beautiful! If it weren’t for your blog, I wouldn’t feel confident pairing this with anything but black pants. And the recommendations for basic pants (which are not basic when they FIT WELL and are flattering!) are so helpful as well. Thanks Tania!

  3. Beautiful, but no way I can spend $199 on a kimono. (I didn’t see any $60 off either unless it was a “discount added at checkout” kind of thing.) It would certainly make a statement!

    1. Bonnie, the discount was in the cart, but I think that the sale is already over. Today, they are having a 30% off on sweaters though, so maybe you can find something else you like instead.

    Tania, for the last 2 days, your posts are not loading. My friends and I click on your “click here” link and we get a message saying nothing can be found. I had to go back to this older post to let you know.

  5. Darlene Smith says:

    Tania, your posts from 10/31 and Nov 1 will not fownloaf

  6. Vonda Smith says:

    Tania, I watched your video about how you style your hair, and now I can’t find it again ! Can you please help me please? I loved your tutorial about how to get volume at the base of my roots with a flat iron. I’ve never used one before, so I wanted to refer back to it, after buying one. Thank you! Love watching you each day! Another SW VA/E TN Gal.

  7. Beautiful ruana! You make everything look so nice Tania, it doesn’t matter if it’s Walmart or Chico’s, you do them well.

  8. Tracy Abraham says:

    Love the peacock kimono! Beautiful on you!

  9. The ruana is beautiful

  10. You wrote: “I can see myself wearing this gorgeous Peacock Ruana out to dinner with your husband or friends.” Nice ruana, but I wonder what Joe might say!

  11. I love the beautiful colors in this ruana. The navy pants look very classy too.

  12. I do not see the list you talked about to scroll thru. Gorgeous outfit today!

  13. Marcie W. says:

    Wow….what a beautiful 3rd piece. It’s definitely a statement piece and looks lovely on you.

  14. It’s a beautiful print on the ruana. I’ve seen some I like, but I always feel as though they add pounds on to my frame so I don’t wear them. It looks great on you though.

  15. I love everything . I really would like to order those shoes but I wear an 8.5 super slim. I never can find a nice heel or wedge in that width.
    Thanks for your hard work, bringing us these lovely fashions.

  16. LOVE the look on you. Perfect and it does make a statement.

  17. I love this ruana on you and other kimonos on other people but I feel like I look so frumpy in them! I need to find a more neutral one to start with!

  18. Love this post! The clothes look beautiful on you.

  19. Christine Simpson says:

    Wow!! That kimono is so beautiful! Definitely makes an entrance!!

  20. Christina says:

    Hi Tania, you are costing me a small fortune… lol I purchased the tan jacket from Chico’s also the plum color one. I wish Chico had more Short pants in stock because I have a 27 inch inseam. I look forward to your email everyday. Keep them coming! I love all the difference clothing you show and price range.

  21. Lisa Kelleher-Gavin says:

    Absolutely love it and also loving your hair lately

  22. Christine F says:

    Definitely the most beautiful ruana I’ve ever seen!
