Living in northern California now, I’ve got a weird relationship to the seasons changing. Mostly because, for the most part, they don’t.
That said, I’ll always feel wistful in August. I’m pretty sure I’ll be eighty years old and feel the urge for a Target visit with my mom to pick up new pens, pencils, folders, and notebooks for the coming school year. Who’s with me?!
Whenever I start feeling end of summer-onset nostalgia, I really double down on my warm weather wear. If you’re similarly ready to dig your feet into the sand and pout, “I’m not leaving!”, why not add an item in a super-duper warm weather style like palm leaf print style to your wardrobe? You already know about SG HQ’s love for prints and patterns, so it’s only natural to express yourself through this eternal summer style!

DO YOU FEEL THE PULL TO BUY A NEW TRAPPER KEEPER EVERY AUGUST, TOO?
Not yet! I’m not ready! The freshmen have already started moving in at the University of Pittsburgh and I’m not ready!
I, too, am still very much enamored with beachy/aloha prints and I’m not even remotely ready to give them up. I’ve got tees that will definitely work year round (including one I just had made for a trip to Disney in October), and most of my aloha shirts look great under a cotton or knit blazer, so I’m good until I have to wear the tweeds and heavy wools. Actually I just got a burgundy moto jacket over the weekend that I think would look pretty great with some of my shirts…and now all I want to do is go home and try out those combos.
Also I have no intention of putting away my Aloha Yoda canvas sneakers. Ever.
And I may have to pick up that J.Crew tee, Topman tie, and Fox shirt.
Such great picks by Gabi, right?!
Some of these pieces are soooo aggressive.
Ha, true! But paired with more basic pieces, they *hopefully* won’t feel too overwhelming
Might have to get that tie, and by might I mean definitely.
The tie is the best.
