How do I wear that trend…big, bright floral prints

By Aisha Sims
 
There’s nothing more sunny than a pretty, summer dress. Whenever I wear one, I immediately feel more girly. One of this season’s trends are big, bright floral prints. One great way to incorporate this trend into your wardrobe is with a pretty dress with big, bright floral prints.
 
Now I do realize that the idea of floral prints may conjure up thoughts of Little House on the Prairie or Little Women but these new prints are much more colorful and pretty and less like you live in a two room house with outdoor plumbing. So I encourage you to dive into this trend with a dress first. Once you get a dress and realize how cool this trend can be, here are some other ways you can participate in it:
 
1. Accessories. Bright floral hair accessories, bracelets and rings can be very pretty. Plus it can add a wonderful pop of color to any outfit.
 
2. Shoes. Print pumps or wedges can be a very pretty addition to a basic outfit.
 
3. Skirt. If you find a skirt with one large flower or a really big floral pattern on it, buy it! You can really pretty up a plain t-shirt and basic flats with a bright, floral print skirt.
 
I would love to see how you incorporate this trend into your wardrobe. Please send pics to info at cluelessfashionista.com and you could be featured in a round up post!
