Florals.....

TIP...tropical florals are great as a whole look and I love that this print comes as a trouser suit for a mod touch wear with flats and a great pair of sunglasses have fun with the print

shoes and sunglasses my own

TIP...a white shirt gives this look a relaxed modern feel to a floral printed mini skirt and pick out a colour from the skirt for an oversized jacket; its a key style for this spring make sure you go for bold floral colours for a strong summer look!

jacket, shirt and boots my own

TIP...I am loving the ditsy floral print (very 90's) and have added bright coloured boots to toughen it up as they can be slightly girly for a rock n roll look I have also added the denim waistcoat clashing the floral prints but the white blouse softens the whole look again

Print.....

TIP...if you wear the same print why not try it in clashing colours I have added white boots to this 50's inspired look to give this a stronger impact and make it less girly but keep accessories to a minimum
