At HighSobette we love fashion that can be considered “out of the Box” because we believe that you should be able to choose,take risks freely without worrying of ending up on someone’s worst dressed list.

By some miraculous series of events and generosities,I ended up in Aruba last week end.While soaking in the sun and  then participating in a company happy hour ,the  thought of a fun cover up came to mind.Finding something to litterally just throw on that still had an urban/fashion edge while still being tropically appropriate .Natalie Golonka,creator of JungleGurl a label we featured a while back, must have read my mind as she is launching "Cover" by JungleGurl a series of easy pieces that are urban enough to translate from the ocean/pool to a more pulled together venue.

A few of my faves on the flip!
