palm everything

7/18/15






Im not even going to try to describe my love for palm print right now.  It is clearly the print of the moment and from scarfs, to shorts, to pillows & even my phone case - I am palm print crazy.  Will someone please tell me why this just became a thing!?  I am a lover of prints by nature.  Every here and there I try to tone it down a bit by sticking with neutrals but I always go back. 

I do have to admit that this palm print madness is only a fad and that it will pass so most of the items I have bee purchasing in this print are not quality pieces.  This scarf was under $15 at Forever 21 and it light enough to wear in summer (I am guessing this trend will end when the warm weather passes). 
















downtown chic: palm shorts

6/8/15








shorts - Old Navy (currently 30% off) | shirt - Nordstrom (exact, similar) | sandals - Old Navy (currently 30% off)| handbag - Rebecca Minkoff | watch - Michael Kors (similar) | gold bracelet - Gorjana | blue bracelet - Nordstrom 

All winter I tried to go neutral and now that the summer is here I can't help but to jump at the sight of a good print.  I am already into pineapples but the palm leafs are catching up and I am not mad about it.  Now that summer is around the corner and I'm not afraid to wear shorts anymore I knew I needed these as soon as I saw them.  The print is bold but is simple at the same time and can be paired will any color from neutrals to neon.  The cut of these shorts is perfecr, if you love the pixie pant from Old Navy you will love these shorts because they are basically the same fit!  The material is breathable, has the perfect amount of stretch, and a variety of colors! 
A good fitting short is hard to find (especially for a curvy behind) surprisingly I don't feel like my cheeks are going to peek out of the bottom or that my circulation is being cut of as soon as I sit down (A good fitting short is hard to find (especially for a curvy behind) surprisingly I don't feel like my cheeks are going to pop out of the bottom or that my circulation will not be cut off as soon as I sit down (amen)!  
I kept the top simple, a good chambray works with any bottom I added a more casual vibe by tying it in the front (and the shorts were a little too high waisted to tuck the shirt in).  The shoes were another Old Navy find and I'm on the hunt for them in another color  - the blush ones are perfect but if the shoe fits, buy it in every color...
