Vintage Boho Love

Few things in fashion are as elusive and potentially beautiful as a really good, vintage caftan. Done wrong, you can look like you're headed to a seance or playing an extra in an early 70's Woody Allen film. But done right..? Well, see for yourself!!
This stunning cream and coral number was a family heirloom which Tanya whipped out to show me the other day. I was smitten! Certainly not just a great caftan, but flawless for the L.A. beach weather as well. How often do you come across that, either in fabric or print??
This retro stunner feels so very Abbott Kinney. The print colors conjure up a seaside vibe, and the addition of the turquoise jewelry sealed the deal!
 From every angle, the drape is perfect.
A statement turquoise ring completed the simple but elegant accessory enhancement. Once again, with a dress like this, you only need one or two bold pieces. The cut and print do the rest...
At the end of the day, tunics, caftans and ponchos can all look incredibly fresh when paired with the right accessories, hair and makeup. Keeping the add-ons simple made this vintage stunner look completely current and fashion forward!

Love,

Tanya D and Noa B
