chiquita


ralph lauren sweater, j. crew skirt, lily pulitzer wedges, lily pulitzer bag,
ralph lauren aviators, necklace from when i was little

Ahh this necklace. A few years back we were clearing out my closet and I unearthed it. I found it too adorable to part with, and waited for the day where I could proudly strut my stuff in it once again.

Enter: Spring/Summer 2011, where anything goes in the world of color.

Now, I'm not sure if you (or anyone in the world, actually) spied any plush dog necklaces parading down the runways (is it a dog? I'm going with dog..), but the colors on this necklace were just too perfect to keep hidden any longer! I'm also loving the big, chunky beads. (Chiquita banana, anyone?)

Naturally I styled the rest of my outfit around this pièce de résistance -
I think it made for some wonderful colorful fun! Happy July!
