STYLE YOUR DESIGNER KAFTAN WITH THESE SIMPLE YET STYLISH TIPS
FOR A DAY AT THE BEACH:
Kaftans are considered the most fashionable beach coverup. The loose silhouettes and vibrant prints act as the perfect pairing, as they offer both comfort and style in one. The light and breezy garment is convenient to throw over your bathing suit and protect yourself from the wind and the sun.
To jazz up your beachy designer kaftan look, you can simply add some beach-appropriate accessories, including chunky jewellery, a sun hat, a beach bag to carry the essentials, sunglasses and beach flip-flops.
FOR A BRUNCH WITH YOUR FRIENDS:
Nothing can brighten up your mood like a Sunday brunch with your girl gang. And if you have the perfect designer kaftan in your closet, it is all the more reason to get dressed and enjoy a scrumptious brunch. But before you head out, make sure to style your brunch look with some elegant accessories.
Dainty jewellery pieces such as hoop earrings, a layered necklace and a stack of bracelets are a must to add a refined touch to your brunch outfit. Style your brunch kaftan with a sophisticated handbag and block heels for a cohesive look.
FOR A FAMILY GATHERING:
Family gatherings are all about catching up with your loved ones, savouring delicious food and doing activities you love to do with your family. Dressing up for these get-togethers can make these joyous events even more memorable. Designer kaftans are a safe bet for intimate gatherings, as they are both comfortable and fashionable. But don’t forget to accessorise it to elevate the look further.
Keep it simple with the accessories: some basic earrings, a handbag and your favourite strappy sandals.
