3 Tropical Summer Looks to Lounge In

June 13, 2013

On this cold, rainy day in Brooklyn, there’s nothing I’d rather write about than fun, tropical-inspired style. I got a gorgeous vintage Hawaiian barkcloth jacket in the mail the other day and it inspired me to put together some fresh vacation-inspired looks from items I already have in my closet. Proportion-play, pop color accessories, and prints were key. I linked to similar items for each outfit, so you can get the look too.

Above, my vintage Hawaiian barkcloth jacket (check out a similar palm print), a pair of clear blue sunnies, a wooden beaded necklace, and my favorite high-rise denim shorts, all accented with a neon spike bracelet.

Above, a marigold kimono robe, a sheer pink net top (made by moi for Bombay Mermaid Trading Co!), a tropical print mini-skirt, topped off with a pastel beaded necklace.

Of course, until we have a shift towards summer weather, I’ll be wearing these looks inside with the windows closed and a cup of hot tea, watching surfing movies on Netflix. But nonetheless!
