Summer Style Solutions: Flirt With Florals

Summer Style Solutions: Flirt With Florals

There’s something instantly summery about pretty florals. And the new way to wear blooms this season is with sportswear – add a tracksuit top or trainers to make last year’s ditsy-print dress feel fresh once again. But a black blazer will also anchor your look and make it feel more office appropriate. Show your wild side in lush botanical prints, which are great for holiday wear (Linda Fargo, below, looks elegant yet exotic in her statement floral dress). A more urban way to sport this trend? Try a floral-print backpack. Utility wear combined with a girlish print looks unexpected and modern.

Style it with …
… leather to balance the delicate fabrics and feminine prints. Choose butter-soft leathers in neutrals, or try a metallic effect.
