Summer florals are nothing new in fashion, but this year one particular flower is taking over: the orchid. I have fallen in love with Zimmermann‘s flourishing, vibrant interpretation.
Enjoy this trend in full bloom.
My look: Corsage orchid-print linen-blend midi dress
by Zimmermann, embellished lace-up suede pumps by Dolce & Gabbana, Nina leather tote in cognac by Gabriela Hearst, large butterfly sunglasses by Prada, bracelets by Chanel, Tortue 18-karat rose gold, alligator and diamond watch by Cartier, Diorette ring and earrings, both by Dior Haute Joaillerie.

There is a heat wave over Europe and this week has been tropical so far. Needless to say, I am loving it. Spending time at the pool in my garden, working yet chilling, feels like paradise for me.
My look: Printed eyelet lace dress, and matching printed triangle bikini, both by Emilio Pucci, Impatiens clip-on earrings by Oscar de la Renta, shell, faux pearl and crystal necklace by Etro
, silver-tone beaded choker, gold-tone necklace with shell charms, gold-tone and shell choker, and gold-tone anklet, all by Isabel Marant, Rose des Vents bracelets in turquoise, orange, green and pink by Dior Joaillerie, embellished lace-up suede pumps by Dolce & Gabbana, vintage pink leather clutch with studs by Louis Vuitton, and embellished aviator sunglasses by Alexander McQueen.
Beat the heat in style!

This accessories trend is pure fun and has become one of my favorites. Pompom embellished pieces have been popping up everywhere since last summer (remember those to-die-for pompom boho sandals?!). This colorful accent is fun and flirty – I adore the way these colorful little balls look hanging off the straps of a pair of beachy summer flats, on a straw hat or a great beach bag. It just puts me in a good mood.
Here are my favorite pompom-accented pieces that are sure to complete your summer wardrobe!
1 Maldives medium pompom-embellished woven raffia tote by Nannacay
2 St Tropez embroidered woven straw tote by Kayu
3 Corozon pompom-embellished woven straw hat by Sophie Anderson
4 Claudie small pompom leather cross-body bag by Sophia Webster
5 Frika embellished cotton shoulder bag by Antik Batik
6 Beach Hair Don’t Care straw clutch by Rebecca Minkoff
7 Adorada mini pompom-embellished woven raffia tote by Sophie Anderson
8 Pompom-embellished sandals by Elina Linardaki
9 Embellished lace-up suede pumps by Dolce & Gabbana (50% off)
And great news is these little pom-poms are here to stay for winter… for winter those cute balls come in all sorts of fur, best seen at Fendi:
