Punchy Paradise

Punchy Paradise

For the most part I'm a pretty neutral person when it comes to my wardrobe. Well black mostly, I do live in NYC so it's kind of a given, but with a decent amount of camel, white and some champagne and gold scattered in there.

But when I think of summer and tropical locations my mind instantly goes to bright, bold, punchy colors. When packing I tend to leave my black behind and reach for any bit of color that screams to me from my closet...green, pink, yellow & blue. All the colors come together in one rainbow colored pile on my bed. It's so funny but when I look down at that pile, I suddenly feel like a different person. Not the too busy to get everything accomplished in life girl that I usually feel like. The other me, the carefree vacation me. And I feel happy and lighter and instantly ready to roll. All the better for some fun in the sun :)

How about you guys? Do you go punchy for vacation or do you keep it clean, crisp, white and neutral?
