The pineapple is making its way onto photo shoots and clothing. Will it make its way into your wardrobe?

Each season there is a theme that makes waves in fashion and pop culture that is borderline tacky but completely awesome and makes you rethink what fashion is really about. Sure, fashion can be about big gowns, designs that inspire fantasy, big names, high-quality rare fabrics and exclusivity. But there is a side of fashion that makes you feel happy, playful and comfortable that is equally important.

People have different fashion styles, and there are certain trends that conservative fashionistas will claim to never venture into, and that’s OK, but sometimes, it takes the right print to hit the right cord and change their mind. Then there are the fashion adventurers who like quirky, unusual things that may seem ordinary but make it their own. Those are the people who help popularize the tropical print craze that is popping up all over the place. Not only in fashion but also photographers and all over social media.

One big thing this season is the pineapple. It’s not just an awesome fruit. It’s a refreshing print that can inspire different trends, if you really think about.

Fashion and style is all about mixing and matching these days. People will put things together how it speaks to them, not necessarily by the book or advice anymore.

Imagine a pineapple-printed top with some light ripped jeans with a calf-length cream sweater, open toed heels, black round vintage shades, an armful of boho bangles and some effortlessly wavy hair.

You’d pretty much be ready to take a picture to put up on your blog, Twitter or Instagram.

Things like pineapples and tropical prints make the outfit look interesting, more fun and refreshes the typical wardrobe combinations. Ripped jeans aren’t a new trend, and oversized and long silhouettes aren’t new either, but pairing them with unusual things makes everything feel new again. Sometimes, the pineapple is the prop in a photo shoot or paired with accessories to add color, texture and makes it more fun. It’s a hot item and trend this season.

The pineapple is youthful and makes you think of a tropical place or fruit salad. It works well with street style, blogger style and even dressy occasions. You just have to find a piece with a print that works and speaks out to you.

Maybe you will instantly love the pineapple on your clothing, or maybe it will never be your thing. Regardless, you have to agree it’s adorable.
