Y’all do not understand how easily I was going to get a heat stroke just to take this pictures! Dubai heat is no joke. It was like 8’0 clock and that was too late for me to be walking around in open air. Especially in the summer on a desert! But we gotta do it for the blog and gram.

Can we also take a moment and admire the artistry that is this water fall? I remember seeing it and knew that this will be my shoot location.I mean isn’t this gorgeous?
Now on to the blog post, Floral fashion is today’s topic and it doesn’t have to be cheesy! With select patterns and symbols (and an open mind!), you may find that flaunting flower vibes really is your thing.
Floral prints and bright pieces always come into play come spring. It’s the time of year that we finally get to shed a few layers and change the direction of our style. While not everyone may be ready to tuck away their cozy knits and rain-ready boots, I sure am – and I am not hesitating with jumping into my favorite spring trends.
How to Wear Floral Prints this Spring
Make a statement:
Floral print accessories are a great way to try the floral print trend as seasons transition. A floral print top or pair of shoes will brighten up your day without looking over-the-top. If you’re wary of this trend, try incorporating it into your outfit as a statement accessory piece–you’ll make an impact, but it will still be subtle!
Add a contrast:
Toughen up your floral pieces by pairing them with a contrasting texture or color, like black. This skirt paired with this cute top creates a more balanced and visually intriguing overall look. Add on a pair of simple chic jewelery to your floral and you’ve create a look that combines ladylike prints with toughened up fashion.
Go girly:
Floral print is a definite staple in the girly-girl closet: Think wedding outfits. If wedding bells-inspired style isn’t your thing, you can still create a totally girly look by picking up your favorite skirts, dresses, and blouses in tiny floral prints. Traditionally girly styles are made even more feminine with the addition of this fun print.
Go for the Unexpected:
This flower printed top may be floral, but it’s not the typical print we’re used to seeing. This print almost has a tropical vibe to it which makes it really unique. This sort of print paired with the fact that it’s almost a velvety texture makes it a really one-of-a-kind piece to have in your wardrobe.
Go edgy:
With the right outfit, floral print can also have an edgy feel. Instead of picking dainty pastel florals, try a larger print in darker colors. As a bonus, these darker florals can be worn into cooler seasons, too! Another way to give your floral look an edgier vibe is to pair a feminine floral with tougher accessories like this choker and sunglasses. Mix and match for a look that’s all your own!
Finish off with great shoes:
A pair of perfect high heels can lengthen your legs and pair your skirt very well. Also, a pair of high heels can spice up your outfit. Actually, a pair of high heels can go with any outfit. It’s useful to have pairs of high heels.
