In Character: Jessa Johansson



Marnie can work a body-con dress, Hannah really embraces a romper, and Shosh sweats a fascinator, but it’s Jessa who really goes hard at the personal-style thing—she nails that whole bougie, don’t-give-a-rat’s-ASS vibe she’s trying so hard to put out there. —erica

A By Ti Mo kimono that makes it clear that she’s thisclose to collapsing into a bed (hers, someone else’s, whatever).

A Eugenia Kim hat that makes owning a hairbrush optional.

The sort of Shashi creation that says, “I’ll be your crack spirit guide.” You know, if a necklace could say such a thing.

This Something Else kimono with a *sequin cactus* deserves to be the centerpiece of some album art. —erica

Next Level: Kimonos

This time of year, when some light layers become key, you can run out of options quickly: blazer, cardigan, denim jacket…YAH. But that’s where a kimono can save the day (or at least save you three outfit changes in the morning). Here’s how to get to it. —erica
LEVEL I: Couldn’t be more straightforward than this Blk Dnm number, which is a more luxe and sophisticated alternative to an oversize button-down.
LEVEL II: The structured cut and girlish palate makes this Corey Lynn Calter incarnation easy. Also: How good is it with those pink leather pants? Holy.
LEVEL III: Sure, this flowing Something Else take is loud, but it becomes a lot more approachable with a black maxi dress underneath.
LEVEL IV: Amazing, right? Abraxas Rex’s hand-painted creation is 1) bold and 2) an investment, so you have to be committed to making this thing a cornerstone of your look.

We’re really liking the idea of throwing on a silk kimono instead of a regular ol’ cardigan, and the ones from Winter Kate are especially stellar. (Have said this before: Both of Nicole Richie’s lines are pretty kick-ass.) To see how to wear this to an event involving floral headresses, check out our post on Guest of a Guest. —erica
