Isn't it beautiful when you receive a gift from someone and it just so happens that it belonged to a very dear person in the giver's life? Two years ago, a friend of mine gave me two kaftans which belonged to her mother. This one and a turquoise and yellow one which will eventually debut on the blog.
She had just returned from visiting her mum back home and she said when she was leaving she chose those two particularly for me. How nice and thoughtful. They came complete with the head wraps and wrap skirts, however I didn't feel like a skirt today so I have styled the kaftan with leggings and my Ghanaian slippers.
Let me know if you like how I styled it in the comments box.
What a beautiufl tunic and lovely photos, too. Bare feet in Autumn? Fab! x
ReplyDeleteThat's a lovely look!
ReplyDeleteYou look stunning, Elsie, beautiful photos and look! :)
ReplyDeletePerfection doll, you look amazing!! xx
ReplyDeleteYou have such generous friends and you wore this outfit like it was made for you. I love each and every pose.
ReplyDeleteYour friend certainly picked the right kaftan with this one! The colours are great on you. And you've styled it beautifully with the lovely sandals and leggings. I do love your bangles too - I'm a collector myself and I go weak every time I see some nice ones :-)
ReplyDeleteI wish I could wear a turban, I think it's so chic and elegant (the famous Danish writer Karen Blixen was often seen wearing one), but it always looks strange with glasses, like my face is getting "crowded" - but I really like the look on you.
WOW this was a gift??!! What an absolutely stunning Kaftan and you wear it so perfectly. Really. So elegant and pretty.
