Even if you don’t have travel plans, you can still boost your mood by channeling the tropics

We’re daydreaming about the day we can once more feel safe jet-setting to shores near and far, and it’s coming through in our wardrobe. From palms and pools at Versace to glittered flora and fauna knits from Missoni plus a touch of psychedelia from Louis Vuitton and Marc Jacobs for good measure … We get the feeling that designers really enjoyed serving up these island-inspired statements this season. To enjoy tropical vibes without ever leaving the house, try slipping into one of these prints. And don’t be afraid to mix and layer: Add a vintage headscarf or a flower brooch, or try wearing three different prints at once.
