Last Friday we showed you how to fight the winter blues by adding pops of beautiful color to your outfit. Continuing the same trend, this week we turn our attention to the ultimate feast of colors—the floral print. For those of us still bracing for winter temperatures and snowstorms (as we must in the Northeast), floral prints are just the right thing to usher in our warm-weather escapism. This season, we don’t want you to just walk into spring, we advise you to strut right into it—with style. Nothing says spring more than being draped in flowers. And no, floral prints don’t convey only notes of pretty, delicate, and feminine. They are, as Vogue tells us about Spring 2015 collections, quite perfect for the sophisticated fashion palette: “Floral patterns were everywhere, from the blossoms at Simone Rocha to the muted sixties tan florets at Max Mara to metallic blooms at Louis Vuitton.”
As we await (rather impatiently) the new season, we share some serious flower power to inspire your own flourishing wardrobe with pieces that tap into an appreciation for all things blossoming—bouquets, gardens, and new beginnings.
