A floral dress is a great piece to have in your closet! Reach for it on a spring day paired with a jean jacket, or on a warm day with a pair of sandals and a hat. Floral dresses have become very popular and come in all patterns and styles. Many people tend to steer away from florals because they can be too busy. Rest assured, this season there are enough out there for you to find the perfect fit!

2.  Floral tops & embroidery.

A way to incorporate floral into a spring outfit is with embroidered clothing. Recently, floral embroidered jeans have become popular. They are a great way to individualize jeans and make them more interesting! A floral top or blouse is a just as fun way to spruce up any outfit, whether it be for a day out or a business casual look. This embroidered sweatshirt top is great for jeans and skirts alike!

3. Floral swimwear.

A flowy, floral bikini is a chic and fun tropical look, especially for summer beach days and vacations. Embrace the floral trend and pick from the variety of different floral inspired swimsuits that are in stores. Floral swimwear is an easy way to spruce up your beach look. Throw on a simple sundress and sunnies and be on your way!

4.  Flowy floral rompers.

Rompers are a comfortable and easy piece to throw on for just about any destination. They are a summer favorite, especially for me, considering how simple it is to create an entire look. Floral printed rompers can dress up or dress down your look, with just a change of shoes. They are an easy and effortless take on the floral trend.

5. Accessories.

Floral themed accessories are a fabulous addition to any outfit. They are an easy way to incorporate the trend into your personal style, without wearing floral patterns. Florals may not be for everyone, but these accessories are surely eye-catching pieces that can be paired with any spring or summer look. Shoes, bags, and jewelry can be floral too!

These are five ways you can make your closet a bit more floral. Trends come and go, but this fresh, yet traditional look isn’t going anywhere. I hope these floral picks inspire you to branch out or expand your spring and summer style. Get shopping!
