A Pineapple Means Welcome
Do you know that the pineapple is the symbol for welcome?
Well, I do and pineapples are one of my favorite things. I love to eat them, to decorate with them and to wear them! So much so, that I even wrote an entire blog post a couple years ago about the history of the pineapple here in the south.
So, you can imagine my delight when I received this lovely cashmere pineapple sweater and clutch for my birthday.
They make the perfect outfit for our late winter and early spring days!
Are you planning a spring trip to South?
Now that we are closing in on mid- February, spring is just around the corner for us here in the south.
And for you all that live in colder climates, I’m sure that many of you are counting down the days to spring break. Then you will have a chance to breakaway and head south for some sunshine and warmer temps.
I thought that it might be a good time share my new pineapple sweater and and get you in the mood for spring.
A shimmery golden pineapple design adorns this super soft sweater giving a tropical touch for all your cooler spring outings. By adding the pineapple handbag, I’m ready for dinner or a resort weekend.

Kelleyann, yes linen is indeed a perfect Florida fabric!
Thanks for stopping by dear friend!
I didn’t know pineapples were symbols for welcome. I love your chic look Rosemary xx
It begins to make sense of why we see pineapples so often in hotels, home decorations, etc. Pineapples are a symbol of hospitality.
Thanks for stopping by!
That is so interesting about Pineapples. I love love this neutral look! Beautiful pictures and great post!
Peace!

I’m happy you liked the post. I’ve got this thing for pineapples. I guess it’s from living here in the south. And they are used a lot in decorating and design.
Be sure and make it a wonderful weekend!

Oh what a delightful post! I love pineapples because of the symbolism of hospitality and their rich history in our nation. I clicked on your link and read your other post on pineapples because I am such a fan! That was a great post too! We have purchased a few pieces over the years with a pineapple and one of our favorites is a “key rack” that is metal and has several pineapples on it. We all love it!
I love your top and your bag and the lovely pillow with the pineapple on it, and it very definitely lifted the spirits of this Michigan girl! We may need to plan a trip south for a little “pick me up”!
I am thrilled that you enjoyed this post so much! As you know from working on your blog, “Your Favorite Chapter”, that it so rewarding to know that others are reading and enjoying our thoughts and posts.
Thanks, bunches for reading and commenting!
