Green stripes and red apples

green stripes and red apples

There's something about the warm seasons that makes me consider all fruit prints and accessories as appropriate for anyone past kindergarten. Cherry related accessories are a favourite all year long, yet just wait till spring comes along to see me start  hoarding anything that has an apple, banana, kiwi, or any other fruit print. You might recall me mentioning my fruit madness before, but now I'm here to warn you that it's only getting worst.

Still, as I think about it more and more, it might not be as silly as I first thought after all. Just like Carrie once asked, when did life stop being fun, and start being scary? There's nothing wrong in indulging an innocent guilty pleasure, because if we don't make fashion, and especially life, fun, no one else will do it for us. So why shouldn't we all start looking at life through a pair of pink-tinted lenses, or, if you will, a pair of apple shape sunglasses? It might brighten up your entire mood :)

Am I being too optimistic? Maybe. But it doesn't hurt to try, as no one else is responsible for your own happiness, but yourself. What say you? Which quirky accessory can change your entire day, and take it from bleah to fruitastic?

oh girl, i love fruit madness, so it looks amazing on you (yes i want those sunnies). what an amazing look and i love love the colors so so much. the green and the black are just insane together. i am a huge fan of maxi skirts but it is very hard to find the perfect one. let me tell you, this one is perfect. the shoes and the bracelets are absolutely perfect and the finishing touch.

You're the one and only person I know that can wear that yellow nailvarnish!!! You look like a fairy instead of a zombie with it haha! I cannot wear it, my complexion and hair color are against yellow on my nails!
Btw, you look wonderful, really!

This outfit's amaaazing, Ioana! It's all in the details, and I believe it has something to do with the sunglasses and the lipstick (this shade looks great on you). I'd say more things, but I think the photos speak for themselves.

My pick would be a pear-shaped ring, worn with a lemon-print dress. Recipe for a fuitylicious day :).

Hugs,
S.

Oh I love your apple sunglasses and the colours. That green colour goes so well with your skin and hair :) xxx

San said...

Such true words. At first thought I wanted to say I don't have such accessories, but on second and third thought..
My turquoise and my japanese (just got it yesterday) handbags are certainly things that make my day, same goes for my Hello Kitty socks. XD
However, during the day I'm almost always fine, it's the evenings and nights that are sometimes hard on me. Then I turn to my movie collection and reading Marry Poppins. Nothing better to shut down the scary part of the world. And in the morning I'm fine again.

Your skirt is fabulous and those glasses are such fun. Such a chic and fun outfit. You look fantastic.

Have a fruitastic new week.

Summer is definitely the perfect time to start wearing fun prints as well.
You look gorgeous in the green skirt and that bag is really pretty.

meelusha said...

hihi, this outfit just brings a smile to my face...an admirative one, of course! the sun glasses are genius!

if you know how to wear them, no outfit is silly or too childish, the right attitude will make all the pieces work! I usually feel most fun and childish in my Darimeya dresses, I just adore their playfull prints!

xoxo,
