The first hint of a life more tropical vibed its way into runway premonitions earlier this fall. In those crisp colder days, Summer 2015 teased us with the promise of palms and we were tantalized by sheer tropics, like this seductive ensemble from designer Osklen. This week marks the official beginning of summer, and we’re getting a head start on the heat by bringing the Bahamas straight to the street: Grab your best beach bag, your palm printed pants, and all of your hottest hues, like guava and banana, because the tropics are trending.
When dressing tropical chic think one island at a time: Stick to one pattern and pair with nude, white, black, or simple metallic-toned accessories that will elegantly enhance the boldness. Or select one primary color from the pattern and accessorize accordingly. With that said, be brave: If there was ever a season to turn heads, it’s this one… so don’t fear the heat.
