Be a Flamingo in a Flock of Pigeons

by Leave a Comment

In the spirit of being in the tropics, I’m ditching my typical New Englandy blue+white stripes and opting for some bright coral hues! Flamingos are having a moment right now, and do I love a good animal (bird?) motif. I’m giving Kate Spade credit for this one, just as I gave Tory Burch credit for the fall of foxes, and I’m going to blame the upcoming giraffe trend on Lilly Pulitzer for Target…

Easy Weekend Wear

by Leave a Comment

I tend to go through a few casual-weekend uniforms a year, depending on the season. In early spring, I’m all about showing some leg + even open toes, while staying warm in the breeze with layers on top. I don’t think it’s possible to own too many comfy high-waisted skirts, and I have been living in my denim jacket this month!

I’ve developed a new love for a certain long-legged pink bird lately, seen in the LC Lauren Conrad dress above, as well as this Lilly skirt. Is it possible to not feel happy while flamingos adorn your clothing? Don’t think so.

Happy first day of summer + National Wear Your Lilly Day! You all know I have a soft spot for Lilly Pulitzer, so this is definitely one of my favorite days of the year. Not to mention, LP is offering free gifts with purchase today, so get shopping!

Plastic Flamingos

Blazer, H&M [similar 1; 2] // Lace tank, Urban Outfitters [similar] // Denim cutoffs, Forever 21 // Purse, Sibyl Vane // Cooperative Applique Flamingo Flats, Urban Outfitters // Jewelry, GUESS; Alex & Ani; Savas Studios

Pink and green flats with flamingo appliques on them? I just could not resist. I love the easy-goes-it early summer feel to this outfit… when you can get away with wearing shorts but still need another layer somewhere else! I could happily wear a version of this every night this summer… maybe with this version of the flats next time?
