Summer/Spring Exchanges

I know I've been blogging a lot about what I want for the Spring/Summer and a friend of mine and I decided to join our forces and pick our own as well as each others' must haves for the season. You can check out what he picked out for me by looking at his blog at www.saturated-fat.blogspot.com.

Here are my picks for myself.

HELLOOOO Tie Dye! I have always liked tie dye especially since I think it's the perfect print that absolutely resembles Spring/Summer. This dress by Ostwald Helgason has such a great combination of both the dye and bright colors.



In keeping with the same color scheme, I picked this really pretty orange Rachel Comey wedge sandal. I am in search for both summer sandals and oxfords and I found this shoe that has both! I do have to say, her shoes are the most comfortable footwear I've ever worn.



Who needs short shorts?! I do! I'm tired of just buying basic shorts and want something a little more special. I found these pleated culottes by Suno which kind of reminds me of fourth of July with the great fire works print on the side of the shorts.



Printed leggings are also on my list for what I want this season. I know florals are really in trend, however I really like these by Ostwald Helgason because it has such a unique print that isn't girly as ones that I've been seeing.



Now I have been searching for a cuff forever and couldn't find one until now. This one is by Fleet IIlya and I love it!

My Picks for my fellow friend blogger, Chad from Just a Little Bit Fat

So the following are the items I picked for my friend Chad and he was looking for tassel shoes, a big printed bag, printed shorts, slouchy top and a printed scarf.

I picked these shorts by Opening Ceremony because it has such a fun cloud print and I know he loves to have his hem line to be wayyy above his knees.




This Paul Smith scarf would be so great for the Summer with the bright color scheme!



So one thing about my friend....he LOVES the color orange and shoes. Who doesn't love the citrus color? These Paul Smith Marcello Loafers are perfect!



Ed Vichy Tote Bag in this all over black and white gingham print is really eye catching which I know Chad will like since it's one of his most favorite prints and will not be too overbearing against his outfits.


Finally the last item is this slouchy feather wrapped cardigan from Urban Outfitters. There's something unique about this top because of this draped silhouette and he will be able to change the look with pairing it with various under shirts.
