Everything’s Coming Up Roses

Florals are everywhere this spring, from patterns on dresses, tops, skirts and jackets to flowers on shoes, headbands and bags. Florals can be girly, romantic and whimsical and the best thing about them is there is a floral pattern for everyone. From 50s style tea roses and bold botanical prints to tiny violas and elegant irises there is a flower to suit your mood and personality and the modern prints ensure that you don’t look dated or dowdy.

During the height of summer we can look forward to sashaying about in floaty floral dresses but while the weather is still chilly, a pair of tights, some leg lengthening platform court shoes and a cute cardie means that we don’t have to save the trend until has hotted up.

Here are a posy of prints to get you thinking that spring has finally sprung!
