FASHION: Natural Wonder

Rise and shine. The natural world is slowly coming to life and so is your wardrobe. Set aside those boring flat colors and discover a secret garden full of all the summer prints, ruffled sleeves and hints of lace a girl could want.

Island vibes abound in the Lelis’ Halter Romper from The Southern Pearl Boutique. Textured, stretch-woven fabric in cherry print, falls from a drawstring halter neckline, into a darted, sleeveless bodice. And don’t forget to catch some sun this summer with the straw hat from The Posh Peach Boutique. The hat features a black grosgrain ribbon along the brim. An absolute must-have for the lake this year!

The days you'll never forget begin with a boho white lace flowy two-piece-set by Esley from The Southern Pearl Boutique. This two piece set will be your go-to must have piece for this season! Dress it up with a gorgeous clutch and some pumps for a finishing touch.

The Listicle yellow off-the-shoulder top will bring sunshine to any cloudy day! An elasticized, off-the-shoulder neckline tops a relaxed, woven bodice, and three-quarter sleeves with more elastic and ruffled cuffs. Let your legs get some sun when you wear the Toast Denim shorts. These cute shorts boast a high-waisted fit, front zipper and cuffed hems. Both from The Southern Pearl Boutique.

The timeless wide-leg jumper by Flying Tomatoes from The Southern Pearl Boutique will keep you styled perfectly for any occasion. The Breezy lightweight woven fabric, in green, sweeps across a surplice neckline and short sleeves. Stroll under the sun looking as sweet as can be with the Woven Circle Bag from The Posh Peach Boutique. This summertime essential is sure to complement all your resort-ready looks thanks to its woven wicker construction that makes up the cute circle shape.

Make your vacation getaway, and look chic doing it, in the white wide-leg pants by And Mercy and The Southern Pearl Boutique. Pair it with a one shoulder bikini top by Beach Joy that looks chic at the beach and posh poolside! Sleek stretch knit sweeps across this one shoulder bikini top with a minimalist appeal.

Generate great vibes everywhere you go in the Audrey 3+1 multi-striped romper from the Posh Peach Boutique. Lightweight linen blended woven fabric, boasting a princess-seamed bodice for that sunny day by the pool. Pair it with a brown woven Net Bag from The Posh Peach Boutique for a perfect finishing touch to your summertime ensemble!
