Today's FBFF Questions are all about summer trends. Katy Rose of Modly Chic has asked us what we are loving for the upcoming season.
I’m actually loving pretty much the same trends for summer as I was for spring. Weather-wise there isn’t a huge difference between spring and summer weather in my part of Oregon so my summer wardrobe is essentially my spring wardrobe but with more sandals.
Here are some things I can’t wait to wear this summer with sandals.
Tropical Prints
I’m amused as all heck that tropical prints are back. I like them because they’re kitschy and I love the kitsch, but I also like them because they’re so easy to thrift. In fact, I’ve already worn a thrifted, tropical print piece this year:
Printed Pants
I’m sort of obsessed with this trend. As I mentioned before, I know I probably shouldn’t wear printed pants given the size and militancy of my thighs, but darned if I don’t love them. I’ve thrifted a couple of pairs, including these that I’ve already worn this spring:

Tangerine
It’s the Pantone Color of the Year and, in my opinion, for good reason. It’s just so frickin’ vibrant. See?:
Coral Belts
Okay, this isn’t a trend, except in my wardrobe, but I love my skinny coral belt. I’ve worn it multiple times and will definitely be wearing it all summer long:
Neon
It took me a little while to get on board with neon last year, but I’m glad it stuck around for another year. I have a few pieces in my closet, mostly neon pink, mostly thrifted, and I can’t wait to wear them. I’d also love a pair of neon shoes, like one of the pairs below.

Or even a pair with just a little bit of neon, like these:
