Summer is fastidiously approaching and so is my desire to break out my warmest weather wardrobe – regardless of Michigan’s fickle climate. What better way to welcome deliciously balmy, sunny days than with energetic, vibrant tribal prints?
–
I’m drawn to this Topshop tribal print dress because of its stunning geometric pattern and bright, bold citrus hues. It looks fabulous either styled elegantly and edgy (L to R).

To make it elegant yet trendy, pair with a sleek white jacket and strappy sandals or heels. If possible – as an extra style bonus – try to find pieces with pops of color(s) of the main item being showcased (i.e.- lapel trim, clutch, shoes). By doing so, it instantly sophisticates the look and makes it more polished. This outfit is perfect for daytime – luncheons, bridal showers, weddings- and evening events – date nights, cocktails with the ladies, soirees.
–
If edgy is up your alley, metal hardware adornments are key (i.e. – chain purse strap, studs on shoes, zippers, layered necklace). Opt for boxier shapes and darker shades for the ultimate bad-ass chic style. This style is also versatile for day and night – lunch dates, concerts, painting the town black!
–
Whichever style is clever, summon in summer with a stylish dance of global graphics!
