Caftan Chic
Raina from If the Lampshade Fits took the words right out of my mouth: I dig her caftan.
Caftan Chic
This photo has now got me crazy for caftans. I don’t own one (yet) but I so badly want one! I’ve spotted some pretty fabulous caftans online and I’m hoping I see some great ones in stores soon too.
This one from Temperley London is my favourite so far but it is so completely out of my price range:
Domitia Caftan by Temperley London, $1650, Neiman Marcus
Calypso St. Barth is a go-to spot for easy breezy summer wear and their recent collection for Target includes a bright pink caftan. All the Calypso St. Barth caftans have really pretty patterns.

How pretty is this orient-inspired caftan from Natori? I love the pattern and the colours.

Diane von Furstenberg is known for designing beautiful patterned fabrics and gorgeous dresses. This caftan is no exception (oh, and you can buy the gorgeous matching bikini).

What do you think of the caftan? Would you wear one? Do you already own one?

I love this post. Of course I would totally wear a caftan! Long live the caftan, I say!
They’re glorious and they’re super comfortable. I have a long tunic that I like to wear around the house in the summer- it’s like a short caftan. It’s now high time that I get the real thing.
Thank you for inspiring me to make the caftan upgrade. I adore the turquoise Bengal caftan- so perfect for those hot summer days and nights.
