Sailor Knots

 Top: Escapada Rose top (wearing an xs) // Shorts: Ann Taylor // Sandals: Tory Burch // Sunglasses: Prada // Earrings: Lee Brevard // Tote: J.Crew // Bracelets: David Yurman bangle, Amethyst cuff, Lily and Laura, David Yurman buckle bracelet
It’s warming up here in Houston, which means shorts weather is finally here. Typically when I wear shorts, I like to dress for multiple occasions whether it be running errands followed by dinner with friends or hanging out with my boyfriend, Rick. That’s why pairing some tailored shorts with a fresh and colorful tunic is the perfect way to look put together and stay cool.
Enter this adorably preppy and perfect Escapada Living tunic, complementing my sandals and shorts. I’ve been a huge fan of Escapada (last seen here and here) since I discovered the brand a few years ago during a family vacation to Hawaii. So this top has been a welcome addition to my growing Escapada collection – I’ve already worn it twice since receiving last week! It’s been such a great piece to throw on and go; leaving me feeling feminine and put together…seriously the best feeling when walking out the door, am I right?!
Be sure to check out Escapada’s current Spring/Summer collection – the prints are beyond stunning and the pieces transport you directly to warm summer days and island life… some of their pieces are currently available for purchase online here, and you can also shop a few other Escapada and similar looks below.
Hope you have a great week!
