Blooming Blazers

Maybe the summer season is over, but I'm still holding onto some prints and styles that say warm weather. I'm talking florals. While I'm not wearing a dandelion sundress to work, I can still have some fun with floral in other ways. I really love playing with a standard blazer because its an expected 'business-like' piece but a floral blazer? Now we're talking.

Forever 21, Floral Collarless Blazer, $22

Ok, so I'm not sure what's happening underneath this blazer (not much) but I love the colors of this blazer!

Bluefly, Leather and Sequins Red White Floral Blazer, $49

I love red, black, and white for a classic power outfit. 

Asos, Floral Edge to Edge Blazer, $89

Hello lovely! I love this blazer to ankle pants, denim, or a pencil skirt.

Modcloth, Fab Floral Designer Blazer, $69

A great cropped look that would pair well with a button down, a tee, or a silk tank.

While a navy blazer is a classic and versatile piece, I think you may be surprised how interchangeable a floral blazer really is!

Stop and Smell the Statement

May flowers. Love them. Let's wear them. Floral statement necklaces are bold, season specific, and colorful for all summer long!

Talbots, Bouquet Necklace, $79

I love how non-blingy this necklace is. It's colorful and almost vintage looking. Great heavy chain as well.

Amazon, Trisha Floral Necklace, $48

Spring perfection in a necklace. These flowers have a cotton candy feel to them.

Shoptiques, Classy Floral Necklace, $29

Unclear what a 'not classy' floral necklace looks like, but this one is gorgeous. I love the pearlescent colors.

Kohl's, Flower Collage Double Strand Necklace, $18

A delicate double strand really balances the punchy flowers.

A great warm weather accessory that is fun and easy to add to a button down shirt, tee, or dress! Floral statement necklaces come in all sorts of colors, styles, and most importantly, prices.

How Original

Florals for spring, how original. But hang on, florals have changed. They've been upgraded. Florals are not just Easter Sunday or pretty cupcake prints anymore, oh no. They're oversized, unexpected colors, and nothing you'd expect. Today we're taking on florals in work-ready pencil skirts.

Nordstrom, Cascade Detail Floral Print Pencil Skirt, $78

See what I told you? Didn't see this one coming. So crisp and fresh for spring.

River Island, Orange Floral Print Pencil Skirt, $20

A little That 70s Show but pair it with a silk bow blouse and you're ready for 9-5.

Ann Taylor, Curvy Hibiscus Pencil Skirt, $89

This skirt is going to hug your hips and slim your waist. 

TJ Maxx, Printed Scuba Pencil Skirt, $16

Can't beat the price! This is something out of an adult coloring book and I love it.

Don't pass on floral this spring. I promise you can find something that is going to work with tops that are already in your closet. Play with stripes or dots on top to really add a punch.

Buy Me Flowers for No Reason

It's hump day. We're getting there. To spruce up today let's look at something pretty, some unexpected florals. The following florals are modern, cool, sophisticated and not your mom's Easter floral.

Saks Off Fifth, Floral Print Paneled Fit and Flare, $69

The exposed front zipper gives this pretty print some edge.

Loft, Modern High Waist Skinny Ankle Jean, $39

Told you these were a different kind of floral. I love the mustard with black and white on these jeans.

Macy's, Ronni Nicole Cap Sleeve Floral Colorblock Sheath, $69

The best part about this dress isn't the floral, it's the epic orange stripe down the sides. So chic.

JCPenny, Stylus Twill Shorts, $17

A bright pair of shorts are going to get a lot of wear this summer. And the price is right.

The right floral will do wonders for your wardrobe and these options are quite lovely and unexpected. Try a floral in more than just a Sunday dress. Wear it to work, add tasseled jewelry for date night, you name it, the floral will help.

Heck Yeah I'm Wearing Flowers

So I got you flowers. I know! For no special reason at all, which in my opinion is the best reason to give and get flowers. Today I got you big flowers, oversized flowers that are a great way to hold onto summer.

Urban Outfitters, Cameo Lift Off Bomber Jacket, $228 $99

Feminine meets moto chic. I love this mix and these colors.

Macy's, Rachel Roy Sleeveless Andi Floral Tank, $44

I love this layered tank that is so delicate and yet machine washable!

Nordstrom, Search for Sanity Print Raglan Sweatshirt, $68

No surprise here that Nordstrom nails it with this transition floral sweatshirt.

Asos, Influence Floral Print Oversized Top with Cuffed Hem, $34

Neon pink with pops of black is the exact contrast that you can pull off with floral.

Big flowers, I mean oversized, in your face, heck-yeah-I'm-wearing-floral prints are a great trend. Try it! I'm telling you, the compliments will be blossoming. See what I did there?

Go Boldly

Hey there lovebugs,
Happy almost Friday to you. Last month at about this time we looked at some floral pants. Today we're going to continue the floral trend but look at some bolder prints. Some flowers that just can't be contained in you usual, expected colors, patterns, and shapes.

Dorothy Perkins, Floral Printed Mesh Dress, $79

Boom. Now we're talking floral. I love everything about this dress: the shape, the gathering at the waist, colors, oh I just love it.

C Wonder, Silk Graphic Floral Print Blouse, $99

How about these big ol flowers? Modern, graphic and so much fun.

Lord and Taylor, Tracy Reese Floral Shift Dress, $98

This floral has more of a disco vibe to it. I would pair it with some killer high espadrilles.

Modcloth, Work of Pop Art Top, $49

How about this top? There is so much fabulous going on I'm having trouble not adding it to my cart and checking the heck out at modcloth.com.

Florals aren't just for your pretty Sundays or meeting your grandmother. Try out some bolder colors, some bigger patterns, try some unexpected florals.
