Unabashedly Bright

Lilly Pulitzer is almost a southern staple, but you don't have to be a college sorority girl to pull off the cheery prints. My love hate relationship for Lilly continues as I gravitate towards to vibrant colors but shun some of the loud florals that hung in my closet in the year 2000. This simple cotton dress boasts color, but the busy pattern consists of swirls, dots and even a lion if you look closely. I'm a fan of the Palm Beach inspired island attire on this toasty humid day!

Feminine Charm

Something about the silhouette of a fit and flare that is so flirty and feminine! I find it flattering on a shorter figure. May flowers are blooming and the humidity is rising, which means navy stripes are begging to be worn! The combination of navy, white and gold is slightly nautical but screams chic! Such a simple palette, but such a bold statement.
