BGG Stylist Obsession: Kimonos

We know this information may be shocking to you, but we're going to go ahead and begin this crazy busy work week with a hangover. Luckily, our BGG Stylist has decided to highlight a fall trend this week that's perfect for rough days like today -- the kimono.  You're already thinking "only girls with asymmetrical haircuts can pull that off," aren't you? Relax. This is the easiest trend of the season because you can literally throw these babies over anything.  Grab a black tank dress and booties (or a black tank, some skinnies, and an over-the-knee boot) roll your hair into a bun, add some dramatic eyeliner and BAM! -- you look like a million bucks, even if you feel like a buck fifty.

And speaking of a buck fifty, you won't need much more than that to pick up a pair of shoes from one of our favorite new Broke-Girl-friendly collections: Christian Siriano for Payless.  The fall 2011 styles are actually amazing -- don't believe us?  Watch this.  They're so cute, and so affordable that you might find yourself buying the entire line. The fact that we're giving away two $30 giftcards to Payless today is even more motivation!  To enter, simply leave a comment on Facebook or Twitter telling us why you want to win.
