Small, soft, pastel wildflowers are suitable for summer, but larger scale, bright, less dense, exotic blooms are for more cold weather. Also, lookout for more substantial, more luxurious fabrics that look gorgeous in a floral print for fall or winter clothing.

A tiny floral pattern can be a great way to wear floral in a more subtle way, they are softer and more delicate. On the other hand wearing a bold, large floral print makes a statement and always looks totally sophisticated. A high contrast mix and over-sized blooms create more dramatic, edgy look.

Think about your body figure as always when you consider any printed outfit because they are the focal point of your combination.

Consider bringing floral into your outfit by the way of accessories. This is an easy way to add some floral to your day without a full commitment. It quickly adds a fun, feminine, and playful touch to any outfit.

Choose accessories that complement one of the other colours in the print in order to balance the look. Avoid adding more colours and textures to your overall look.

A simple way to make sure your floral isn’t too much and over power you is to break it up with a jacket, vest, or cardigan. It also gives the look structure and shape.
