Summer of Color… The New Gibson x Hi Sugarplum Collection

Uncategorized

June 6, 2019

Best Thursday ever!!! Hi friends… it’s here and it’s live on Nordstrom. The brand new Gibson x Hi Sugarplum Summer of Color Collection has officially launched and I am here to give you the full play-by-play on this gorgeous new capsule collection from my friend Cassie.

Filled with all things happy, the Gibson x Hi Sugarplum Summer of Color Collection is right up this girl’s alley and it features the bold colors of the Mediterranean.  Making me think that another vacation is in order!! Ha ha!  Even better, the entire collection of separates, rompers and dresses is made to mix and match for all of your travels, work and more.

The prints are chic, yet casual enough for everyday; and the fabrics are lightweight and perfect for summer.  My favorite part?? It’s super affordable!  Most items are under $60, and everything is under $100.  Plus, it’s completely size inclusive.  Including petites and plus sizes!  So everyone take note and start shopping NOW!

I absolutely went gaga over their last collection and showcased it on the blog back in January.  See that feature here.

One thing I love about the Gibson brand is their attention to detail… fun ruffles, self tie belts, pockets galore.  They never miss a beat, and their collections with Cassie are by far the best I’ve seen.  So let’s get down to business!

First things first, my favorite outfit… no I’m not saving this one for last friends, it’s front and center and absolutely the cutest separates I’ve seen. Featuring the Cavallo Notch Collar Button Down in Pink Chain [just $59/wearing XXSP] and Menorca Paper Bag Short in Pink Chain [$52/wearing XXSP], this gives me all the happy feels because I’m a MAJOR fan of mixing red and pink together!

I love the short sleeve button down blouse idea for summer.  Pulled together to perfection with double front pockets, relaxed collar and a bit oversized for a relaxed fit.  The paper bag shorts have have been one of my favorite silhouettes this season!  They’re so fun and sophisticated, yet still casual enough for everyday and the self tie belt and pockets don’t disappoint. They are made of super soft cotton, too–the perfect fabric for warm temps and travels this summer. I absolutely loved pairing these two matching separates together. But love that you can easily mix and match them up with other styles as well.

Next up, let’s move along to something a bit more fancy… the Sardinia Ruffle Neck Date Dress in Vista Cherry [$69/wearing XSP]. With wedding season on the horizon and lots of fun festivities to attend, this ruffled dress is the epitome of cocktail party style.  Plus, it’s fully lined, versatile and the under $70 price tag is a win that won’t break the bank. If you love the print, but want something a bit more casual, this print also comes in a Mykonos Racerback Woven Romper

Now let’s talk all things blue… another one of my go-to shades for summer. This time, I opted to pair the Paros Soft Henley Tank in Nautical Stripe [$49/wearing XSP] with the Milos Wide Leg Paper Bag Pant in Blue Lagoon [$59/wearing XXSP]. You know I love to make a bold statement and this does just that! I love the traditional nautical stripes in this cobalt blue colorway; and the cropped paper bag pants makes it beach ready and chicly cute. You know this gal loves to mix prints and colors and these two bold pieces make it match perfectly!

Speaking of stripes, let’s also discuss another casual top worth noting, the Malta Knit Square Neck Ruffle Sleeve Tee in Red and Pink Stripe [$52/wearing XXSP]. Flutter sleeves made with soft cotton, this versatile top comes in a ton of colorways and is one you’re going to want to grab in multiple prints/colors. It’s super flattering on and goes with ANYTHING you have in your closet, I promise!! I paired it with one of my go-to white denim cutoff shorts and called it a day.  Making this look simple, savvy and stylishly pulled together, too.

Finally, let’s talk about this Ibiza One Shoulder Ruffle Top in Summer Stripe [$56/wearing XXSP]. Give me all the rainbow and give it to me now… I absolutely love the playful one shoulder silhiuette, especially for date night dressing up and taking on the town!
