Tropic Thunder









Apparel is dripping in pineapples, bananas, grapefruits and other fashion forward fruits. The warm breezes, yellow sunshine and playfulness of dresses, skirts, tops and shorts patterned with tropical influences is whipping all into a frenzy.  This fashion maven was at a spring fashion show and riveted by the emcee sporting an unforgettable pineapple infused skirt that over shadowed the entire extravaganza.  For some zany reason the tropics are taking center stage.   Perhaps it is the magical delights fruit adds to very occasion.  Or the fact that fruity pieces during summer have always been a classic staple and is once again making a brightly yellow, green, pink, pink, red and orange appearance. 



Magical Paradise










I.  Splashes of  Exotic Color:  Tropical dresses with modern treasures of palm leaves, lemons and pineapples are feminine and attention-grabbing.   Of course, the added flirty fun element evokes sultry destinations and romantic charm.

Southern Heat









II.  Scarlett O'Hara Swoon Worthy Skirts:  Marvel at an infused pineapple or a hot pink skirt while taking in the heat, sun enveloping the surroundings.  The casual whimsical print or burst of smashing color will brighten the day and become a standout option.

Pineapples, Lemons, Oranges, Florals - Oh My! 












III.  Spice Up Accessories:   Become a bit zany with a burst of lemon iPhone cover or with any wild tropical accent that emphasizes summer is here.  Do it!  Don't wait until fall - spread wings and absorb the sunshine Tropicana destination. 




That's Bananas! 



















Grapefruit with Powdered Sugar! 
















Last But Not Least! 


















This summer fill up on fruity apparel laced with bananas, pineapples and any other piece of scrumptious fancy fruit. Imagine the tropics, dancing in the sand, floating in a pool, listening to the ocean or anything that creates joy.  Yes, a piece of juicy and tasty summertime fruit can evoke beautiful memories, keep the heart singing and demand smiles all around.   Take time to hug your friends, family and spread the joy of life to all.  Go Bananas!

  Elegance in White                                                          Diane von Furstenberg "The joy of dressing is an art." - John Galliano White is timeless in a well-designed shirtdress.  A white shirtdress signals spring and summer are around the corner. Wear this modest number throughout the warmer months. The effect is classic and memorable signifying elegance.    Today there is emphasis on quality apparel and minimalism in accessories.  The day of large and flashy logos are "out" and (frankly always have been), and instead there is a nod to quiet luxury.  Refined fashion leaders are following this fashion memo.
