Florals for Spring to Summer

Spring has sprung and it's all about florals. Usually, after Easter, I start to transition my closet to more of a spring wardrobe that can go into summer. Down south, especially in Austin, Texas, we don't get a lot of spring-like weather. It kind of goes straight into summer. So far, we are still having perfect weather. To start transiting your closet, you can start by adding floral pieces like the top that I am wearing or a pair of shoes or a bag. Floral is always a good idea for spring and summer. That's always a trend that's not going away.

Here's a little tip when it comes to styling floral pieces, I would make that piece the focal point of your outfit. Since there is already so much going on you don't want your outfit to be too busy. You would want to stick with the basics when styling something floral. You can always pop the colors out from the top. For instance, the top that I am wearing has some red in it. I have paired this top with my red bag which really brought that color out. It really just depends. You just have to see what would work for you.

This particular top, I really love how it has a retro style to it. It's not like the same pattern that you always see but it's super feminine at the same time. Even though this is a crop top, the length hits perfectly right above the waist which is super flattering for any body type!

There are so many ways that you wear this top and that's the reason why I think this top is a closet statement for spring and summer. Take it from me, the more I wear it the more I love it. Some of the ways you can wear it is the way I styled it in this post. Another way is to dress it down, I wore it with my sneakers and it looked so cute. Also online I noticed they paired it with a skirt. I haven't styled it that way but I will keep you posted. If I did style it with a skirt I would definitely dress it down with some white sneakers. For summer you could wear it with some cutoff shorts and sandals. Anyways this top would be perfect for spring and summer.
