Blogging can get kind of hectic at times. From the projects, to the social media, to the photography, to the editing and then scheduling all of the content…it’s enough to make anyone’s head spin {mine especially!}. This summer I’m thrilled to have a little help from some very talented college students. They’ll be stopping by from time-to-time to share a few things with you too.
With that being said, today I’d like to introduce you to Alex, and a very popular Summer trend we both love! Take it away Alex…
Summer is the best time of year because it’s all about… prints!
As I was walking through different stores at the mall, I couldn’t help but notice palm fronds are this season’s hottest trend. Move over Hawaiian shirts, there’s a new boss in town!
Regardless of gender, you can find a vast array of fashion items with the palm frond print. From bathing suits to dresses, it’s impossible to think this trend isn’t popular. I even noticed the men’s section to be sporting the print!
This fun design gives your closet just a slight pop of color and fun and goes against the cliché prints of polka dots and stripes. Adding a piece to your outfit is a sure way to spruce up your look and make people take notice of you. Perfect for summer!

If the print is too bold for you to commit to buying a shirt, shorts, or dress, adding a simple headband or pair of shoes to your ensemble is an easy way to follow the trend but still being discrete about it.
Just imagine all the potential outfits you could create?!
I’ll admit I was skeptical of the trend when I first saw it, however, after seeing how people were wearing it, I realized it can really add a lot to your outfit and you can tailor the print to fit your style, regardless of what your style may be.
If the summer weather is too hot and muggy for you to go outside and enjoy the outdoors, then bring the outside in with your clothes!
Is the palm frond print trend too much for you or are you a fan?
Love, love, love it!
