the look book summer 2017 No matter your age, there’s nothing quite like the start of summer. Pop on your sunglasses and soak up these sunny styles for your Summer 2017 aesthetic.

MAPS

bUtteRFlIeS

Summer is the ultimate travel season, but when life keeps you stationary, flaunt your wanderlust with vintage maps. Think outside the frame globes make for great mantle accents, retro subway maps look fab collaged, and coasters showing off a variety of cities can get any party started.

tIkI

boNe WhIte Bright white is out and the more natural bone white is in. Its more delicate tone works well with vintage and nature-focused elements, so pare a bone white vase with wildflowers or a bone white throw with tiki-inspired pillows.

Nothing says retro summer like tiki.

Not only is this the perfect theme for any backyard or rooftop party, it also adds a fun twist to your standard summer décor. Bring in funky hula-printed tea towels and throw pillows, add tropical florals, and pineapple-scented candles to top it off!

FUSChIA Is there any color happier than fuschia? We think not! We love this shade because its intensity means a little goes a long way. Fuschia picture frames, salad plates, and tea lights are the perfect way to add just the right amount of pop.

10 I SSU E N O . 4

Bring a secret garden into your home with charming butterfly accents. Try adding in butterfly prints, vintage botanical prints, or even life-size paper butterflies for the true enthusiast.

leMoNS This too-cute tart fruit is the perfect way to summer-ify your life. Vintage lemon-printed textiles make for darling pillows, curtains, and even dresses. No need to keep the produce in the kitchen - lemons are a charming addition in any room this season.
