Birds of paradise

_MG_5735_MG_5713_MG_5728_MG_5750 On Mallory: c/o Choies tropical mirror print top, Double Zero scalloped laser-cut shorts via Crossroads Trading, Sam Edelman Ginger sandals, Coach crossbody bag

When I saw this shirt online, the cuffs at the wrist (which are ribbed) actually made me think it was a sweatshirt. I thought, 'well that print doesn't make sense for a sweatshirt,' and decided to get it anyway because (a) so what if it isn't logical (b) birds of paradise.  Turns out it is actually a shirt, so  the tropical print seems less misplaced.

    Oh now that is a gorgeous print on a top. I would also think that would have been a sweater/sweatshirt, too!

    Whenever there is a new born in the family, we think about buying special and adorable gifts to show our love. There are so many items for babies but it is only those with premium quality that are worth the money sent. tali rafia
