While there’s a serious winter storm hitting the northeast, I’m locked up in my apartment in an oversized sweater and leggings. An outfit that’s been on repeat more than the Les Miserables soundtrack has in my life. And that’s saying something. So yeah, leggings≠pants, basic math. But as an English major, I like to play dumb to that arithmetic equation when I’m curled up on the couch all day, only going outside to run to my car to stop by Starbuck’s and the grocery store.
I swear, when I wake up in the morning, my nicer blouses and shirts take more energy to wear then my oversized sweaters and cottons shirts do. I admit, this concept may be slightly delusional, but it’s hard to overcome at 7 a.m. when the caffeine has yet to kick in.
So, it’s definitely time to grow out of this winter rut and how else to blossom into a new stage of style then with florals, florals, and more florals. Le duh. My inner hippie is rejoicing at the sight of flowing shirts, tanks, and dresses that springtime offers. I can finally be comfortable yet chic.
Plus, this season is all about layering patterns, so florals are the perfect piece to have in your closet to add the extra splash of personality to your next outfit. Now, if you want to keep it simple with these prints, you can pair them with a simplistic colored top or bottom. Gap, Banana Republic, JCrew, and Forever 21 are great places to go for those basic tanks and classic pieces. I personally love Forever 21 because I’m a college student on a college budget, and they understand me.
So, take a look at a few of my favorite floral picks and soon love will be blossoming!
