Keep Palm & Carry On: The Bell Sleeve Dress

June 12, 2017

Do you ever have one of those weeks where everything goes wrong and all you can do is keep palm & carry on?  I seriously feel like that was me last week y’all!  Luckily, the week is done with, this upcoming week already looks like it’ll be a piece of cake & I’m planning on hitting up the pool finally.  #Blessed

Keep Palm & Carry On | What’s the Skinny?

I just can’t get enough palm print lately.  {Which is pretty obvious if you caught this post last week!}  This palm print frock hits right above the knee and has the cutest bell sleeves.  One of the things that drew me to this dress was the blend of colors; I love that the palm leaves have shades of blue, green, and purple.

Keep Palm & Carry On | Devil’s in the Details.

The undercurrent of purple immediately made me think of the vibrant purple Love Crossbody that I snagged at the Bluegrass Outlets this spring.  It’s the perfect pop of color against the palm print and the suede leather tassel on the bag adds the right amount of summer charm.

I busted out these blush, block heels {last seen here} again & can I just say — they’re SO comfy.  I grew up thinking I wasn’t a gal that could wear heels, but the truth is that I’m just not cut out for stilettos!  Block heels are my jam and this pair from Chinese Laundry prove to be functional as well as fashionable with the criss cross straps and cut out detail.

    I adore this palm print on you, the color palette lights you up like the jewel you are.
    I feel you.– I had two such week recently and, yuck, am I ever glad they are over.
    I love your bag! May I say it? I am glad it is not another Chanel boy bag.
    Love the striped earrings. It is these details that really speak to me.

    Head to toe fabulous!
