Pineapples in fashion seem to be all the rage this summer. Every time I get on Pinterest or read a blog it seems that somebody is sporting a pineapple covered fashion piece.
When I made my monthly walk through the sale section at J. Crew my eyes caught a glimpse of a bright yellow dress, neon to be exact. I picked it up without even looking at the price tage; I love neon. When I tried the dress on I fell in love, I even sent a pic to my hubby.
Finding a perfect dress wasn't even the best part, it was the price. I seriously found the sale of the century. No really...the dress retails at $148. Not only was the dress on the sale rack, but they were running an additional 50% off all sale items; plus I got my teacher discount. Eek. For this $148 beauty, I paid $32. I never get lucky like that, it was amazing.
I jumped at the chance to wear the dress just a few short days after I bought it, and my inspiration automatically went to the pineapple because of its color. I needed to accessorize with greenish-blue to get the pineapple look nailed down, so that is exactly what I did.
I know what you are thinking, "that color yellow isn't really that of a pineapple". But you are wrong, it is, it's the colors of a mutant pineapple that came into contact with crazy purple Minyons.
Running around in my adorable, and comfortable, teal flats, I had a little bit of fun with my new dress. The statement necklace, with the same color teal as my shoes, didn't hurt the look either.
I am already plotting the next time I can wear my neon pineapple dress. It has just enough class, playfulness, and eye-popping color to go anywhere. I think you can actually see me walking down the street in the dark in this number.
