STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Vibrant in Floral

Style Advice of the Week

Spring is headed our way in the windy city, meaning in a short period of time we will be seeing an overflow of floral prints and pastels. I’ve always adored floral prints because they provide a sweet and innocent look for any Fashionistas. They can be gentle or vibrant, and it’s fun to have a variety to choose from when you’re shopping.

On a less than delightful winter day in Chicago with frigid air, most people head to class in yoga pants. I was pleased to spot this Fashionista in a chic outfit on a day when every student wishes to hibernate in pajamas. This Fashionista, Leigh, rocked the perfect pre-spring outfit with her brown leather boots and a floral print blazer. She made the perfect choice by giving her spring-ready blazer a winter vibe. A blazer like this would be the perfect go-to item for an interview in the fashion world, class, a dinner date or a night out with friends. This floral blazer from Forever21 is vibrant in color and perfect for spring and summer. Leather boots are perfect for winter and with this blazer, especially in a rich chestnut color like this Fashionista’s. When the weather warms up, this look would be perfect with a pair of flats or sandals.

Floral prints can be incorporated into an outfit in a variety of ways. If you are going for a simple look, wear a floral printed scarf and keep things to a minimum. If you want to go down the daring path, strut in a pair of floral printed pants like these from Tobi. Floral prints provide feminine looks that can be worn casually during the day, and can easily be transformed into the perfect look for night.
