          Stop and Smell the Roses

          September 21, 2016

          A big favourite of mine, flower prints have moved into Autumn. Bold and colourful on darker backgrounds perfect to wear with chunky knitwear and denim layers. Check out how the designers are doing it and then get inspired to suit your own pocket.

          Dolce & Gabbana flower painted bag, a great way to add petal power without wearing it.

          Big and bold from LKBennett, silk blend full midi skirt – keep the the rest super simple and even tone down with a cropped denim or leather jacket.

          LK Bennett full bloom Eva skirt, £350

          Delicate beaded version from Anthropologie, vintage in style and totally gorgeous as a day cross body bag or evening purse.

          Anthropology beaded bag, £78

          An easy introduction, wear a flower print polo neck under a sleeveless dress or denim shirt.

          Warehouse viscose/elastane polo neck, £29

          Victoria Beckham adds a few forest animals alongside jewel toned flowers and pairs with a low key polo neck.

          Victoria Beckham embroidered jeans, £650

          My favourite for Autumn is to wear florals as a tunic over cropped jeans and chelsea boots.

          Warehouse poly dress tunic, £45

          Vintage inspired sleeved dress with a key hole neck detail to wear with ankle boots and a leather jacket, layered over slim black polo neck for cooler days.

          Top Shop viscose dress, £46

          The easiest way to introduce flowers into your winter wardrobe is obviously a scarf, wear over simple dark knitwear or slip inside jacket reveres.

          John Lewis Modal scarf, £40

          You can choose full bloom or delicate ditsy but keep it dark and moody as the weather turns.

          Moving through my forties I've gained confidence to believe in 'style over trends' - quality wins (most of the time) and not to take it all too seriously. A great jacket is always my motto, and I like to play about with old and new and mix in some craft ideas too. I work with lovely clients who want a concise wardrobe or a unique outfit for a special occasion. I hope to inspire you.

              Hi Ali, it’s a great way to add a moody print, and find your own bloomage – I think I have just found mine with a full length floral dress from Anthropologie – think Margo from The Good Life! See my Instagram tomorrow! https://www.instagram.com/smilliekirstie/?hl=en
