Mom+Pop coffee shops are chasms of creatives collaborating and conjuring up their next big thing or just catching up on caffeine. It’s also a fantastic fashion show of Real Women and it’s where I found my friend Kathryn styled in a gorgeous fall/winter aqua Kerisma wrap that set her skin aglow. Of course, in the middle of the buzzing coffee shop, I enticed her to model a few of the simple ways to wear it. I’m so glad Kathryn was happy to oblige because surprise, it’s not just a baby soft wrap, it’s a scarf, poncho, shawl, and a layering sweater too. A Nothing2Wear style score!
Versatile pieces can handle an endless list of styling options. The wrap is great styled with denims on a casual Friday or with a sleek pencil skirt and oxford shirt for that Monday meeting you fake being excited about.
Not only do I love the multiple ways it can be styled but I love the story of how the piece came to be hers. It was a bridesmaid’s gift from one of her best friends! The smart bride gave each girlfriend the same wrap. A smart accessory many of the girls wore immediately during that cold November Toronto wedding weekend.
The best gifts are the ones that are not only stylish but are practical and can be worn again and again- a different way each time. So, when you think about all the bridesmaid’s gifts you’ve re-gifted or tossed, think about how the bride in this story got it stylishly right! Kudos, girl!
