4 Ways to Wear a Floral Dress 

Spring is in full bloom and the season of the new brings with it the perfect opportunity to add a floral dress to your wardrobe http://www.fashionplayground.co.uk/product/floral-maxi/. 

This ultra-feminine print never goes out of style, which is a fashion bonus as there are so many ways to wear it.

Here are a few of my favourites.

For us Brits it’s important to be able to style out erratic changes in weather and the biker jacket offers an ideal solution. Not only that but pairing your floral dress with a tough, pleather piece will play down the prints sweetness and give that girl-next-door look a much-needed dose of edge. http://www.fashionplayground.co.uk/product/american-eagle-embellished-pvc-jacket/

You can update your look by layering under a sweatshirt for that sport luxe vibe http://bit.ly/2gFuRCm or a chunky knit to make it look like a skirt. http://bit.ly/2fvIyTN With this trick, you can choose to either dress down your graphic bouquets with a neutral top layer or go bold with clashing colours for that extra bit of springtime tsjuz!

It might not be quite warm enough to fly the floral's solo just yet but that’s where your go-to pair of jeans comes in http://bit.ly/2lZXSHq. Always wear with straight cut denim and a strappy heeled mule. Be sure to tuck the front portion of fabric in so as to not completely stump your stature. Throw on a cardie for that extra safety net during the changeable weather http://bit.ly/2ing38d
