Summery Citrus

Why not add some zest to your summer wardrobe with a playful citrus printed skirt? I love the summery feel and bright pop the lemons bring to the outfit. The navy top is a subtle color combo, but the possibilities or options are endless. (stripes, a bold colored tank...)

Pattern Pop

I'm always looking for ways to take a basic item and amplify it. Pants are easy; no tights required. As much as I've been doting on pants this season, I was on the lookout for a pant that popped. I fell in love with the black medallion print against regal red. My monogram craze is in full swing and what better way to show off new initials than against cashmere?
