Let’s talk about floral prints + how perfect they are as we slowly roll into spring. I’ve had this top in my closet for a year now and have always had trouble finding ways to style it. I bought it because I loved the muted teal and peach tones and knew that I could have some fun pairing spring colored cardigans with it. So I’m dusting it off + showing you a could fun ways to style spring floral prints.
#1 Pair it with denim skinny’s.
Grab a pair of denim skinny’s from your closet, roll the hem + add a cute pair of wedges. The wedges give you some height and actually make your calves looks skinny. Since I have bigger calves and thighs, I’m always looking for ways to make them look slimmer than they are.

#2 Pair it with Colored Skinny’s
As I was searching my closet for an alternative to regular denim to wear with my floral top, I found my mint skinny’s from Target. Once again Target saves the day. With a mint green accent in the floral patter, I knew my skinny’s would be a great match for this top. I’m not 100% sure I love the mustard cardigan with the mint skinny’s, but I think it could be fun. I think this outfit would be perfect for a play date or coffee date with girlfriends.

So what do you think? Do you have a fun floral top you can style into spring this year?

You are beautiful girl!! I’m also a big fan of florals + stripes or dots – I wonder how that would look with those adorable polka dotted skinnies? Or maybe some crazy flare jeans for a hippie vibe?
Love it!

Thank you so much friend!!
I bet florals would look great with polka dot skinny’s. I just ordered some from Stitch Fix, so I’ll have to try paring those!!!

Hi Allison! I’m so glad you found me again too! I can’t wait to see how you style your florals. Isn’t cleaning out your closet so fun and freeing?! I’m about to do that again in my closet.

You look fresh and springy…but florals scare the bejesus out of me. ; )
So cute – you wear it well! I have seen florals everywhere this year, I think a sweet blouse will work well this season!

Love the colors, and I think both looks work. I love florals, but somehow, I never wear them. These were great pairings.

Very cute top. You and I have similar body types, but I have yet to wear skinnies. I admire your moxy! You look great! Also, your instinct re: the mustard cardi with the mint skinnies is dead-on IMO. I think the pink cardi would have matched the mint better. Otherwise, you look lovely!
Both looks are cute! Have you jumped on the floral denim trend? Because I have a pair of those and could use some ideas like this for what to pair them with!

I really like both ways you styled it! My immediate reaction would be to go with the jeans, but I love the colored ones too!
