As temperature dips, and the holiday season looms, the theme of love permeates all over from couples getting engaged over the holidays to new relationships beginning to the gathering of family and friends, and of course giving to the less fortunate. Although summer is long gone, and the landscape is desolate with Uggs, and parkas everywhere doesn’t mean you can’t find a bit of love for summer’s sweet florals! If you have been following my blog you might notice that I have a little floral obsession to say the least! The sight of pure flowers gets me super excited so can you imagine when I decided to rack my brain and come up with fresh ways to wear florals all fall and winter long! Read on to find out how to add a bit of love and joy this season long while falling head over heels in love…
TIS THE SEASON OF MOCK NECKS!
Nothing says fall or winter then a mock neck/ turtleneck piece of clothing. This signifies coziness, warmth, and that the cold weather is finally here. Whether you want to wear a floral mock neck sleeveless dress like I did, or go for a richer darker floral long sleeve turtleneck remember to add an extra bit of dimension. This can be done through the styling of the accessories or an added layer.
CRISP BLACK AND WHITE
Yummy stuffed turkey and rich eggnog are to Thanksgiving and Christmas as monochromatic black and white prints are to fall and winter. Perhaps one of the easiest ways to wear florals all winter long is black and white.
PUNK IT UP
The rebel schoolgirl and rocker chic trend isn’t reserved only for Halloween, but celebs to the highstreet are being spotted all over in this. I absolutely love this trend because it adds a bit of edge to a classic print. The first way you can achieve this is to go for a floral piece that exudes a bit more of the punk inspired motif such as a piece that has studs, or even a funky graphic floral pattern. The second way is to pair classic floral prints with punk inspired pieces like a moto leather jacket, leather pants, leather skirts, black motorcycle boots, or booties.
PAIR WITH GO-TO BOOTS
Like a solid structural foundation is to a building, a snazzy pair of boots are the building blocks to every fall wardrobe. Pair your designated floral top, skirt, or dress with a pair of classic riding boots or ankle boots to provide a fresh fall twist!
BLOSSOMING SHIFT DRESSES
With the swinging 60’s and groovy 70’s shift dresses are blossoming all over the fashion scene and for good reason! An absolute favorite of mine to spice up my style. Whether you wear a floral shift dress over your leggings, tights, or skinnies this is the perfect fall staple because it’s extremely versatile and can get you thinking out of box when comes to creating kick ass outfits!
