Full Bloom: The Spring Floral Trend

This season, say it with flowers. Adornments and prints that is. Designers decorated their spring collections with a garden variety of 3-D rosettes and sweet floral patterns on just about everything from accessories to dresses and jackets this year. This girly trend has even influenced the beauty world by causing an explosion of pretty pinks and cotton candy hues for lips, cheeks and nails in the stores. Here are some of our top picks.

Whether you opt for flat sandals or sky-high stilettos, rosette-adorned shoes are the easiest way to get in on this girly trend. Mix them into an already feminine ensemble of a swingy skirt and ruffle top, or simply soften a streamlined look of trousers and button-down shirt. These Dolce & Gabbana black and peach satin sandals ($536) will add a breath of fresh air to anything you put on.

Although we’ve seen pretty prints before, rosette-emblazoned separates are entirely new to the style scene. A delicate floral top is the perfect item to capture the frothy feeling of the season, especially if you don’t feel like going floral from head to toe. Pair this weightless tank with floral detail by Rebecca Taylor ($212) with clean and conservative pieces like a pencil skirt or wide-leg pants to keep things uncomplicated for both daytime and evening ensembles.

Jeweled blooms are the adornments du jour. Printed bangles and flower-shaped accessories can add a feminine flair to a tailored outfit, or they can complement an already girly ensemble. Flaunt your passion for pretty petals this season with this oversized enamel flower ring by Kenneth Jay Lane ($85).
