I am absolutely obsessed with Bottega Veneta. Everything they make is gloriously luxurious and perfectly handcrafted. It’s no surprise that I adore these Bottega Veneta Dark Grey Butterfly Sunglasses, $330 from Barneys. They have the oversized silhouette that I like for sunglasses, plus the Bottega butterfly on the side that doesn’t look juvenile. They’re the perfect balance of sweet and chic sophistication!
Butterfly Dangle Earrings

This takes me back to a (scary) time back when I was in high-school, when butterflies were all the rage. They shown up in a multitude of lower back tattoos, skirts and shirts, and especially earrings. That time is upon us again, but not as imposing as before. Shana Logic presents these lovely butterfly earrings, with black butterflies and red beads adorning them. It’s not sickenly sweet, but not totally dismissible, either.
Coral Ribbed Beater

My ribbed wife beaters are pretty much my favorite shirts ever. They are the best, most-flattering kinds of tank tops that show just enough- not too much- skin. They’re casual and cotton and comfortable, not to mention machine-washable! They’re basically perfect! I’m always on the lookout for cute ones with stuff printed on them and, believe me, they can be hard to find. This one is a very flattering coral color with the cutest butterfly designs. You could wear this year-round- perfect for layering under a cardigan in the winter or wearing alone on sweltering summer days.
Butterfly by Matthew Williamson

I spent a term at the University of Cambridge as an undergrad but never had the chance to make a trip to Debenhams to check out the Butterfly by Matthew Williamson diffusion line. For those of us living Stateside, Intermix has a few choice pieces on sale, including my favorite, the Cropped Rainbow Jacket. I adore the oversized Peter Pan collar and batwing sleeves with gathered waistband.
If you’re lucky enough to be in the UK, score this silk sarong on sale for £12.60!
