when life hands you lemons…

…wear ’em!

Over the years I’ve become quite the lemon fiend. I’m the girl putting half a lemon in my water at restaurants, wearing lemon print skirts and dresses, and making lemon pound cake whenever I get the chance.

Fruit prints have become increasingly popular in the last few years with pineapples, orange, lemons and strawberries gracing everything from scarves to swimsuits. I think they’re adorable, but understand they are loud prints and not right for everyone. If you like the idea but aren’t sure you want to wear them – look around for cute accessories like this lemon coin purse, this fruity phone case, these hilarious fruit salad sunglasses or the funkiest fruit heels! 

(okay last one – these watermelon slides are so fun!)

I hit the jackpot with this dress, as I found it back in June with my sister at a resale shop (Clothes Mentor) for $12. It fits like a glove (aka way tighter than I normally prefer my dresses) but I couldn’t resist the print or the price.

Tell me, are you a fan of wearing crazy prints?
