STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Fawning Over Florals

February 25th, 2015 at 2:00am

Stripes, polka-dots, plaid, chevron, camo, tribal…the amount of prints in the world of fashion seems to grow each day. One that seems to never go out of style is the floral trend. Whether it’s a dress, romper or pair of leggings, you can’t go into a store without spotting at least one piece covered in petals. It’s a print that’s perfect for spring or summer, yet brightens up any look in the winter.

This Fashionista chose to add just a pinch of the floral trend to her own outfit. She starts with a simple white T-shirt and a comfy skirt with a black cardigan thrown over top. Her aviators, leather bag and cool timepiece necklace all add some interest to her overall look. It’s her cool floral boots, however, that really stand out.

It’s easy to incorporate this trend into your outfit without making it the central piece. You’ve probably seen some floral Dr. Martens or ballet flats walking around your own campus. Adding a floral belt, headband or scarf to an otherwise neutral outfit is a super simple way to catch someone’s eye. Whatever you choose to purchase, know that it’s definitely a good investment—this is a trend that isn’t going anywhere anytime soon!

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “I like to mix it up with my style and keep people guessing. The way you dress doesn’t have to fit into one category. You can dress super feminine one day and then punk the next. It it completely up to you.”
