Lemony Fresh
If you’re a reader of this blog (or you just have a set of working eyes), you know by my layout that I love lemons. The color scheme and graphics on my blog have consistently incorporated the sour fruit, and was part of the inspiration for the name, Life Unsweetened (lemons aren’t sweet, get it?) I also happen to absolutely love the taste and smell of lemons in real life. I’m the weird girl who after finishing her water at a restaurant will suck on the lemon wedge that was provided with my water. My boyfriend still thinks I’m crazy after all these years. In addition, yellow is my favorite color. While I have a few lemon-y items of my own (including a cute Target beach bag from last season), I’m always looking to add more to my wardrobe. Here are some of my favorite lemon clothes, accessories and products.

So many cute lemon items! I love to bake/cook with lemons… freshly grated lemon zest smells so fresh and invigorating!
i’m known for eating lemons, too! so yummy 🙂 love the picks!
yes I’m not alone!
I agree, lemons are so fun and I am so glad you did a post about this – I have been wondering!
Alice and Olivia has this awesome lemon skirt that I love but it’s just a tad too expensive for a skirt. It’s funny I always put lemon or lime in my water and coke, and suck on it as well. I also use lime or lemon my skin to clear out my dark spots. But that pillow you choose is my fave. So cute.
Yes I saw those- but they are way too expensive! I’m glad you like lemons as much as me too 🙂
oh my goodness those earrings! I die.
I am loving yellow for spring! Great picks!
I love the skirt, it’s SO cute. And I think the print is just so whimsy and charming!
haha these are so fun! I really like the simplicity of that first cell phone case!
So cute! I had a lemon dress in middle school and it was literally my favorite piece of clothing for as long as it fit!
That sounds adorable!
I’m pretty sure you NEEEEED those earrings. How adorable are they?! I’m really loving the second bikini too!
I might order them 😉
I’m kind of a secret sucker for anything with fruit prints. I love those lemon printed bathing suits!
Same- I love all fruits too!
How could this print not make you happy? I love it! Great way to start a Friday:)
thank you Alison!
I’m not a fan of yellow but I do love lemon yellow. Hard Candy Shot of Lemon is a gorgeous yellow if you’re interested in a pretty lemony yellow polish 🙂
ooh thanks!
This is such a cute print! I’m the opposite of you…I can’t stand the taste/smell of lemons but I’d wear this print! Happy Friday!
I love yellow for Spring. I totally love that lemon skirt you found. The lemon pillow would be a lot of fun in the house too!
Love the Alice + Olivia pieces and the bathing suits. I’ll take a little lemon on pretty much anything too!
I’ll take that cute little skirt. And those earrings. Love this post girl!
I love the yellow color but I am such a neutral colored gal.
I love LEMONS! The lemon print feels so fun and retro like flordia-ish! Great picks!
I eat lemons too! In fact, whenever we’re at a restaurant, my family knows to ask me if I want their lemons. haha.
ok good I’m not alone!
Ah, I love the lemon + tequila print. So quirky.
So cute! Lemons make a darling print on clothing 🙂 Love that first phone case.
That pillow reminds me of a Dolce & Gabbana skirt I had years ago, in college! I loved it and wore it absolutely everywhere! Now I don’t even know where it is (although, it would probably be way too small for me now)!
Such a great post! I would love to own something in lemon print! 🙂
I LOVE this post! The very first photo of the girl in the retro looking dress is my face. And of course Blair Waldorf is one of my style inspirations so I love her outfit too. I also love that lemon print shopper! I love drinking warm lemon water in the morning but I never thought of how cute lemon prints can be!
Oh my gosh! I love Blair Waldorf, so I like you already ;). What a great collection of this wonderful bright yellow color! I love it!
thanks!
Yes to everything here! I love that short poofy lemon print skirt SO much. At restaurants, my water always becomes the lemon disposal location for everyone at the table who doesn’t want theirs. xo
Ha! That print is so funny!
What you eat your lemon slices?! I would look at you like you’re crazy too 😉 I’ve seen that skirt a couple of places, it’s so adorable.
haha it’s ok- I’ve accepted it by now 🙂
I totally eat lemon slices like they are apples all. the. time! My favorite item would have to be that lemon skirt with the pic of Leighton/Blair Waldorf as my inspo. Love.
ok good! Glad I’m not the only weird one 😛
I’m obsessed with lemons in summertime! My favorite find is Crabtree and Evelyn Citron antibacterial gel. It leaves hands smelling SO lemony!
ooh I need to check that out!
How fun!! I can’t pull that off though. I’d be too aware of all the lemons haha
She definitely pulled it off!
So adorable! I would totally rock a lemon bathing suit…the perfect trend for Life Unsweetened 😉
thanks Annie!
Holy adorable! I Love it all and you should buy it all 😉
I would like to!
I totally love the yellow skirt, that is super pretty!! <3
I’ve actually started drinking lemon water a lot to help keep me from drinking soda + to get the extra health benefits! This prints are all adorable! LOVE Leighton Meester’s skirt!
I also think lemons are wonderful! The colour is just vibrant and happy and the fragrance is to die for! And I like the flavour, too. 🙂
Beautiful selection of, well, everything lemony – the iphone case is so pretty.
OMG I love each & every single lemon-inspired stuff you put here….esp. those clothes on Leighton!!!!! I dont blame your….lemons are sooo cute & so useful in almost anything!
I had no idea lemons were so hot right now! But I love the cheery yellow – not sure it’s my best color but it makes me happy to wear it!
I love lemons! That skirt is perfection!! And I think the home stuff is awesome, as well as the phone cases!
ooh, i love that lemon skirt. it’s so unique! x
I LOVE LOVE lemons! Especially in decor and I would put the lemon on a kitchen bench. Thanks so much for the mention of the pillow! Lovin’ that tote bag too. 🙂
Thanks for viewing! 🙂
