Two years ago, floral designs on clothing was already a rage in the fashion world. Even before that. And until now. The floral design didn't really vanish in mainstream fashion. As a matter of fact, fashion labels like Coast, Oasis, and Warehouse are still at it.
We couldn't resist styling their latest floral dresses coming in stores nearest you! Here are five floral ensembles we created via Polyvore that can go from day to night, from laid back Thursday brunches to powerhouse formal parties and events...
1. Laid back Thursday
Unknown to most people in Saudi Arabia, we start our weekend with Thursdays instead of Saturdays so don't be surprised when we have the luxury of eating brunch on a Thursday morning. Warehouse's blue dress is flowy lending that much-needed freshness on a look that subtly says 'summer.' You can wear this ensemble until the winter season comes around. After all, Saudi Arabia doesn't scrimp on sunshine everyday. It's the cool wind that's missing (and the presence of the abaya, haha!) but whatever! A mix of blue and yellow is cool to the eyes.
2. 'Meet the Parents'
Nothing says spring than butterflies and flowers. C'mon, they look good together! And this ensemble will look good on you too especially when you're at a family event. Say for example, meeting the parents of your beau for the first time. It's not supposed to be a very formal event but it's not supposed to be that laid back also. This Oasis dress, with its white/black color splashed with little bits of bright colors here and there, suits most occasions so this is one versatile piece to have in your closet. And turquoise has always been a stunning color. Add it!
3. Sweet Like Candy
Pastels and flowers? What can be more cuter than these combined? For a pretty, innocent look, we say pile on the soft hues! This dress from Oasis is not that innocent especially with its cut (and window at the back, hello!) and body-hugging capabilities but the pink and purple little flowers balances it. This is perfect for a day wedding in the Embassy (just throw on a blazer) or outside the Kingdom (because with the ways weddings here are done, you'll be underdressed in this, hehe!)
4. Minimalist Formalities
A fabulous Coast dress like this just needs a pair of high heels in one dark solid color, a piece of jewelry packed with major bling and a shiny shoulder bag. That's it! This is quite a no-brainer ain't it? It's perfect for a formal event that needs you to be prim and proper but not uptight.
5. Party Hue
Magenta and yellow. This is the wild card in this entry. The Coast dress is quite simple even with its bold color and flower appliques. So one bold color like yellow in an interesting, out-of-the-ordinary lip clutch will compliment it. It brings out the charm of this dress. It does look flowy too; you won't have any trouble in swaying in the dance floor. Party on with smoky eyes and glossy lips.
It's good to have one or two or okay, more, floral dresses in your closet because they're versatile pieces that can take you from day to night and from spring to summer. Just swap accessories and jewelries and shoes and you're on your way to the next event or season. If we can splurge, the five dresses above will already be in our closet. (Oh yeah, we need to work on our figures too, haha!)
