Another trend I’m loving this season, which has carried over from last year: loud tropical prints that really pack a punch. Whether you’re vacationing at a resort in Maui or having your own getaway in your backyard, tropical motifs like these are sure to make you feel like you’re on your own private island sipping Mai Tais. Don’t be afraid to trade in your soft romantic florals for prints in bright colors. To avoid looking like a tourist, play around with mixing in some contrasting patterns like stripes and woven accessories (floppy sun hats, necklaces, bags, espadrilles).  Hurry up summer!
