This week we’re going floral…

Floral patterns have dominated the catwalk and high street. Heavily featured in the D&G show, it seems as though designers are finally celebrating the womanly figure as these feminine prints emphasise a softer, more fluid silhouette. Filtering down to the high street, it is clear this trend can be worn in a variety of ways and for many occasions.

Following another strong trend for the Spring/Summer 2010 the maxi dress and skirt. This easy style is relaxed and comfortable suitable for lazy days, evening drinks or shopping days with the girls. The key to this look is not to make it too busy, if the skirt is heavily patterned like this one, keep the top half and accessories basic and minimal. Think boho, think sienna miller!!

Proving the floral trend can be worn to a variety of occassions, perfect for a summer wedding or an evening at the theatre, this provides a perfect summer look with that subtle touch of glamour. Team it with sparkly sandles to stand out from the crowd and again keep accessories to a minimum with a busy printed dress for understated beauty!

A perfect holiday outfit. Adding a bright, bold print to a pair of casual jeans instantly gives you a summer glow and the colour looks great with a tan. This style of top is perfect for hot days as it floaty and flattering without being a sack!! It is an essential for any wardrobe, if not for its colour but for its versatility. Great teamed with shorts for a daytime, relaxed look or skinny jeans to make any summer night exciting!

Whether its tunic, maxi dress, top, skirt or even trousers. The floral print is THE trend for spring/ summer 2010, so why not invest in a piece, I’m sure it will be around for many more summers!!
