My love for playful prints just got a major summer upgrade.  I’m currently obsessing over everything palm leaf print.  While I’m sticking around in the concrete jungle for most of the summer, these pretty pieces have got me daydreaming of more tropical adventures.  Check out a few of my favorite palm print pieces and let me know what you think of this summer trend!

Hello Monday, we meet again.  The start of another work week calls for another something special to get me through  the day.  This time, it’s a geometric statement necklace that I scored on sale at a recent BaubleBar trunk show.  These baubles are gonna pair perfectly with bright solid colors or bold graphic prints.  Here, the necklace plays off a geometric print top for an outfit that’s all about clean lines and chic shapes.
