Erin’s Style Picks: Yellow Fever

31philliplim.jpgmulberrypoppy.jpg

Welcome to the summer of saturation. That’s right - this season is all about eschewing black garments in favor of bright, sunny pieces that a) make you annoyingly happy and b) don’t make you feel like a sizzling piece of bacon under the summer sun. And if you’re going to go with color, why not start with yellow? It’s mellow, it’s fun, and it squashes both Katie Couric AND Rachael Ray in the parky department. Right now I’m loving 3.1 Phillip Lim’s airy Sleeveless Cabana Dress, a cool white cotton jersey frock accented with bright yellow florals. Pair it with Mulberry’s intense Poppy Square Tote (on sale at Net-a-Porter for $1,346.25!) for a playful look that’s better than Prozac.
