Today, we are going tropical, with a special guest appearance from Tyrion. I had to do it. When I saw Simon Miller’s banana print dress, I freaked out a little bit. When I saw their lookbook, I was inspired to take a little inspiration and try to recreate the jungle cat look in my own garden. Tyrion was not pleased, but I gave him lots of treats afterward. Lucky for me, he quickly forgot his treacherous outdoor adventure.
I love this dress so much. It’s crazy in all the right ways, with a simple cut that skims the body just right. I wore it to the first night of Spoleto festivities and could not stop smiling. Inspired by the dress, I wanted to round up even more tropical prints. Fruits, fronds, and flowers galore. I want everything, especially the bags.
What I’m Wearing: Simon Miller Dress, Dolce Vita Platforms, Simon Miller Earrings

Super cute round-up! Just a quick comment for those who might be in the market: Farm Rio’s stuff is adorable but their customer service feels almost non-existent. I reached out multiple times via email, message, and chat and finally had to call my credit card company to dispute a charge before anyone from FR got back to me. I’ll definitely think twice before giving them my business again.
Yikes! So sorry to hear that happened to you!
So you are walking around town in a $600 dress to cope with the heat? Absurd and offensive.
I’m sorry you think that! Have a great weekend. x
Love this—such a fresh take on tropical without the “vacation-only” vibe. The mix of leafy prints with raffia/rattan textures and clean neutrals feels so wearable. Do you have a go-to piece for easing into the look (maybe a scarf or earrings) before committing to a bold dress?
