Fresh Ways to Wear Floral this Spring!

While there is nothing exactly groundbreaking about the idea of florals for spring, you can still give this trend a refresher by wearing it in new ways.  As many of you know I am a huge fan of the floral trend, and in fact I wore my cropped floral pants just today with a fitted denim blazer, but for those who are unsure of this trend, I do think there are different ways to incorporate floral in your look in a way that you will love.  From an all floral getup to a brilliantly bold accessory, here I've chosen five different and unique ways to master one of spring's favorite trends!


Head to toe floral - if bold or fierce is how you and others perceive your fashion style, then a head-to-toe floral look is right up your alley when tackling spring's favorite trend!  As seen at the Spring 2013 Phillip Lim show, this botanical print flight suit has enough quirk and swag to fulfill even the most outlandish fashionistas! Warning - this is not for the faint-hearted!

The statement piece - make a statement by opting for a strong, borderline empowering, separate that you can easily pair with more streamlined and basic options.  For inspiration check out one of spring's favorite looks, courtesy of Dior's Spring 2013 collection, which featured an iteration of this floral print iridescent ball gown skirt, a match made in statement heaven!  I absolutely love this look!

The Statement Piece


Black and white - if you'd rather take the classic route in regards to flowers, then I suggest you take inspiration from this ladylike ensemble.  Give your all B&W look a pop of color by adding a bright accessory, such as electric blue pumps or a bright red patent leather clutch.

Clutch on - another bold, albeit less intrusive, way of donning florals is the Prada way, via a very stylish purse.  Rather than sweet and girly, think loud and womanly when searching for your latest handbag choice.
To give such an item the attention it deserves, keep the rest of your outfit floral-free, and instead think neutral and solid pieces.

The literal way - if you are more of a natural kind of gal, you can always wear this spring trend the literal way, by donning actual flowers.  As seen at the Spring 2013 Issa collection, models showcased gorgeous flowers via sophisticated hairdos.  Channel the Issa women by picking beautiful flowers and pinning them to your locks.  If that pretty idea sounds sort of impractical, you can always rock a floral headpiece instead.

Now that you've seen my five picks of different ways to wear the floral trend, here are some more looks to get you inspired!
