Springtime is the best time to feel as if you were the main role in a romantic movie. Because let’s face it, who doesn’t love being a little cliché from time to time. Frolicking through the streets in your gorgeous floral dress with your perfectly full glass of wine during sunset. However, in real life you’re probably having your glass of wine while you watch Netflix in your pajamas after a long day.
So when is the perfect time to wear my floral midi dress, you ask? My answer is every day. It’s no secret that our biggest girl crushes right now, with their perfectly girly yet effortless style, are the French girls. Something about the way they dress makes even the simplest outfit chic. What makes them so successful at looking like they simply threw on their look is the fact that they know how to make proper wardrobe investments with pieces that are classic and form-fitting.
The first thing you need to focus on when it comes to picking a floral-printed dress is the scale of the flowers. You may think such a minute detail doesn’t make a difference, but there’s something magical about a tiny floral print. Second, pairing it with the right shoes. Pick any simple mule or strappy sandal- which you know we’re obsessed with right now- and it’ll look great with your dress. Lastly- and probably what differentiates the French girls the most, and what makes these girls look so good- a very natural hair and makeup look. You can even add a red lipstick if you want a pop of color but keeping your face and your hair classic and clean-looking will give you that ultimate effortless look. Match it with any mini bag and you’re ready to go.
Don’t hesitate to embrace the fun work outfits. If it happens to be a windy day, you can style it with a denim jacket or a trench coat and still maintain that fresh spring look of the dress.
Now let’s scroll down and take a look at some floral dresses and skirt outfits that’ll serve as some inspiration for our spring wardrobe.
