In case you haven’t heard, floral prints are no longer just for spring and summer. Fall florals are definitely their own thing, and the good news is: they’re here to stay.
Meryl Streep’s iconic line as fashion doyenne Miranda Priestley in the 2006 film, ‘The Devil Wears Prada.’
Here to make the case is FRNCH—which if you’ve been here for a while, you know is one of my all-time favorite French girl brands.
Consider this your handy how-to guide to wearing the autumnal wardrobe trend that’s surely becoming a perennial staple.
Look for long sleeves.
Sleeveless and strapless tops pretty much scream “warm weather,” so a long-sleeved top or dress (like this one) will make it clear to everyone around you that you’re aware of what month it is—especially during a year like this one which has made it easy to forget.Choose a pattern with a dark background.
While I’m an advocate for wearing whites and light tones all year round, a dark background distinguishes the floral pattern apart from spring and summer territory.Try a maxi length style.
A longer skirt will add extra warmth during those cooler months. Give it a try!Opt for a thick fabric.
By the same token, a thicker fabric adds texture and warmth to a fall ensemble.Style shorter hems with black tights and boots.
There are so many ways style cool weather dresses. Black tights create a monochromatic and elongated silhouette in tandem with your dark floral background which will allow les fleurs to shine, and give you a chance to show off those boots and bottines (booties) which are often hidden under pants.
