FLORAL PLAYFULLNESS

I was quite in the mood to wear something floral today. My closet only holds a few floral dresses but a rather large quantity of floral blouses and shirts. I feel most comfortable wearing a basic, neutral dress and then adding something floral somewhere along the outfit. Whether it's a floral scarf or a pair of floral shoes, adding only one floral pattern at a time is the way I like it. This particular neutral dress has been part of my staple wardrobe for an entire 6 years. It is the perfect piece to add a pop of color to whilst not going too far off my conservative dressing style.
Since the fall season is nearing, I am currently playing up the floral patterns and sneaking them in at any chance I can get. 
The floral top is from Forever 21 and it is very soft and comfortable on the skin. I love wearing this floral top over the shoulders and as a wrap shirt. My companion for today is this little vintage dainty,golden handbag. As usual I am wearing my black ballerina flats from Zara. :)

Thank you for visiting my blog.
Have a wonderful day! :)

I feel most comfortable wearing a floral pattern when paired with a neutral staple wardrobe piece. 

This 6 year old Cyrillus dress has been part of my faithful staple wardrobe.




This dainty little handbag is a vintage find and the bag charm is by me. I am just loving this Forever 21 floral pattern. 



The wrap top feels so light and comfy.



On my nails I am wearing china glaze in the color NAKED.


Yes, I am ready for the day!

  9. Florals can look way too much on a more grown up woman, but the way you pair them looks really sophisticated.
