How to do summer florals

I have noticed that the shops are filled with gorgeous floral prints. I’d love to wear floral prints but what’s the best way to wear them? Can you mix and match prints or is it better to stick to something simple?

You can certainly mix prints; just make sure that they have similar colours or tones for a flattering combination. Florals can be incorporated into any outfit and for any occasion, from summer weddings to a lazy day on the beach. Team a floaty floral dress with flat sandals, over sized sunnies and top the look off with a straw hat to work the floral look on the beach, also perfect for festivals, just exchange the flats for wellies!

Don't be afraid of wearing florals to work, keep the look smart with neutral colours and keep florals to just a splash. Summer weddings and garden parties almost demand you to wear florals. If you don't want to blend in to the crowd, wear a one of the short dresses with an over sized boyfriend blazer. Why not team an all over print dress with a pair of gladiator sandals and an over sized clutch bag, the perfect look for a Friday night out this summer.
