color crush | island green

The end of the month already???? Keeping my work week short but oh so sweet this go around because of the long holiday weekend, but you know I am bringing you the good stuff… also known as an all new edition of everyone’s favorite monthly must-shop: all things color crush!

Getting you ready to make waves with a hue that practically screams sunshine and sea breeze… the May edit is focusing on all things Island Green—a fresh, vibrant pop of color that feels like a tropical vacation in clothing form of course. From poolside parties to patio brunches, Island Green brings that breezy, feel-good energy we all crave as temperatures climb. It’s bold but wearable, playful yet polished… and trust me, once you wear it, you’re hooked. Let’s dive into one of my favorite summer looks starring this irresistible shade of gorgeous green!!

This Puff Sleeve Mini Dress by English Factory [runs TTS/wearing XS] is the ultimate celebration of Island Green = a hue that instantly lifts your mood no matter what the forecast predicts. With a flirty a-line silhouette + feminine neckline we can all agree on, it’s both effortless and eye-catching. The voluminous sleeves add a playful punch, while the rich green shade anchors the whole look! You know I had to take it up a notch–per usual– so I paired it with my Dolce Vita Pink Platform Heels [on sale in 5 colors and run TTS] and a matching Orange + Pink Striped Clutch [hello, color contrast for under $20], plus my signature stack of bracelets for some fun arm candy. No matter the occasion, this color moment is one to remember!!

Of course I’m serving up some major inspo with everything from breezy sundresses to playful accessories… Think gingham and eyelet, woven and stripes, structured linen, and punchy pops of jade and emerald. It’s a texture lover’s dream and a maximalist’s paradise, all anchored in this juicy green hue. I’m loving the variety: J.Crew jelly sandals, Clare V. chunky resin hoops, a practical BruMate tumbler, and even a cheeky needlepoint pillow—because green isn’t just for your closet, it’s a lifestyle. Whether you go head-to-toe in monochrome or add just a splash with oversized cat eye sunnies or an everyday striped tote, Island Green is your ticket to turning up the color dial this season.
