Fab Florals for a Quick Pick-Me-Up

Posted by Lesley Scott Mar 15, 2007

Even though bright colors and cheery florals are a big story for spring & summer, many fashionistas from the big city continue to cling to black-black-black.

However, a good first step to hopping on the trend is an accessory. Try some dangly earrings with a flower design, or perhaps a charm- or chunky-bead bracelet, or ring for an easy was to bring on the color. Fabric covered wedges or flats are another easy method of injecting color...without the physical recoiling that so much concentrated color has been known to induce in black clad hipsters. (Fortunately, extended exposure to colors & prints helps the condition to lessen & eventually disappear.)

Eventually, work your way up to a breezy floral tunic over skinny jeans or slouchy-chic shorts, and then eventually a sweet sundress in a garden print. And enjoy being an all-out (& unapologetic) girlie girl.
