Floral is one of the latest fashion inspirations this season.
With its feminine and flirty look, fashionistas are indulging in everything floral this season including floral shirts, floral skirts, floral lace dresses, floral lace shorts, floral print pants, etc.
If you love floral outfits, consider flower patterned tops, leggings, skirts, dresses, cardigans, etc. You can also decorate your accessories with flowery motifs if you prefer a more subtle floral look.
A floral dress paired with a puff-shouldered jacket and chunky platform sandals can get you started for this cold season. A floral lace cardigan can also work wonders for an effortless elegance. You can wear it over a trendy colour top that strikes the right statement.
You can also pull off a great look with foral ruffled tops. They would look great with anything ranging from jeans, leather pants to a smoking mini!
However, when wearing floral, you must consider the colour and size of the print. The patterned piece must complement your accessories and suit your body type. Tall women can go for oversized or bold prints, but not good for those that have a petite figure.
Florals look best on dresses. And sundresses are best paired with denim, cropped jackets and platform sandals. But tone down your floral tops with monochrome tights or a solid jacket for an all-sweet look. To avoid looking too girly, use tougher accessories
To weather the season, pair floral prints with leather jackets and tights. Avoid adding accessories bearing floral motifs when you wear florals. And also keep your jewellery and other accessories simple.
. For colour, you can either pair a solid, contrasting colour, or a shade borrowed from the colours embellishing the floral print.
Florals are more suitable for casual and weekend attires, but some flowery patterns do impose a level of class and can be a perfect fit for evening, and even formal attires.
