J.Crew: Pineapple Summer
J.Crew: Pineapple Summer by theclosetbychristie featuring j crew jewelry
There’s nothing like a fabulous, unique print! I get tired of the same old florals and plaids, so it’s refreshing to discover something different. Pineapples are a symbol of summertime. Who doesn’t love sipping a pina colada at the pool side? Well, now we love pineapples on our summer clothes! Tropical print is a huge trend for this summer and that includes pineapples. I’ve seen pineapple print on anything from t-shirts to skirts to purses. I’ve seen the print designed by most brands, but J.Crew seems to be the leader on this one.
In the above set, I featured a navy J.Crew pineapple print skirt. I love this skirt because the print is so unique and it just looks like summer! So, how do you style such a different print? It can be a little tricky to pull this look off, especially for the workplace. Well, I kept the rest of my look pretty basic and used the pineapple for my color palette inspiration. I paired the skirt with a navy J.Crew peplum top and a tan J.Crew blazer. The tan color matches that of the pineapple. Most people associate yellow with pineapples, but the outside skin is actually a golden tan. I accessorized with a tan J.Crew envelope clutch and navy J.Crew espadrille wedges. For jewelry, I chose a J.Crew honeybee necklace and J.Crew jewel clustered drop earrings.
