Floral adieu to Spring

For years, stripes competed with checks in my wardrobe with plain t-shirts providing the backdrop. The odd floral dress or top, that I got as a gift, would be tucked away safely into a quiet corner of my wardrobe. Those pretty little things would be remembered on rare occassions when I would be scrounging around for a creative gift wrap!

That has been my relationship with floral prints, and, still is. They are pretty and feminine - just not for me. So, when floral prints became the hot Spring trend, I ignored it hoping it would pass soon. The trend lasted and I gave in - to these adorable floral shoes. If you are like me (or not) add this trend to your wardrobe (subtly) with accessories.

The stores, of course, are stocked with floral pants and blouses, but, these are the shoes, scarves and bags that are worth a look.

These flower clips offer a fun and simple way of playing with this trend without making you dive right in.
