Flora Power

Its summer and one of the hot trends this season are floral prints. Floral prints can look chic if they are worn the correct way if they are not worn the correct way the whole ensemble tends to look babyish. So here are some tips:

1. Choose a Print
   
   With so many types of floral prints to choose from, it’s important to choose a pattern that works with your personal taste and style. Flower designs can range from dainty and delicate to big and bold.
   If you prefer styles that are simple and sophisticated, try looking for a print that features small, miniature flowers. A finer print is not only appropriate for the office and work place, but is a great way to bring in a feminine touch. If you're the type to rock statement patterns, a print featuring larger flowers will work best for you. Look for bright colors, vibrant designs and eye-catching details.
2. Use the Same Color Palette
   
   Once you chosen a floral print, wear clothing in coordinating colors to create a cohesive look. This method is also a good way to put together multiple outfits using the same item. Pay attention to pattern's colors, choose one or two, then work around your choices.
3. Use Accessories
   
   Wearing accessories is one the most tried and true ways of wearing any kind of pattern, and the same can certainly be said for floral prints. Even just one accessory is enough to brighten up an otherwise plain outfit. Larger items such as tote bags, hats and scarves can add some major color to a look, while jewelry and belts can bring in a light dose of floral fun.
4. With Neutral Colors

       Using neutrals is another styling option to use when you aren’t wearing colors found in the actual print. It's also a good "safety" styling method when you aren't quite sure what to wear, but would like to add florals to your ensemble.

5. With Menswear Inspired Clothing
   
   Styling floral pieces with menswear inspired clothing is a fool proof way of looking chic yet fun. Think blazers, straight leg pants and crisp button ups. This will prevent your outfit from looking too juvenile, and instead create a classy, mature look.
6. With Heels
   
   Pairing flower prints with your favorite style of heels are a great way to wear floral with sophistication. Kitten heels and wedges are both ideal options, as these types of heels are modest enough to be worn in both office and party settings. High heels and boots also look especially flattering with floral prints, especially if you're going for a sultrier yet fun look.

Neon Color Blocking

The neons are sooo in fashion these days and color blocking is the hot trend when it comes to wearing neons. But sometimes most ladies don’t know how to color block and they end up looking like a clown so to save you from these happenings I’ll be giving you people some tips and trick.

1. Start With Two Colors
   
   The first step to colorblocking is choosing a color palette. If you've never colorblocked an outfit before, start off with two colors -- a neutral and a bright. Neutral shades will allow you to create a palette that you feel most comfortable with. These colors include black, gray, white and taupe, which work best with the bolds and brights commonly used in colorblocking. Ivory and beige are considered to be neutral as well.
   
   Choose a bright color like fuchsia, kelly green, cobalt blue, purple or orange. A neon would be a "highlighter" version of a color, such as neon pink, green or yellow. You can also opt for jewel tones if you feel that these shades will be more in your comfort zone. Jewel tones include deeper, richer colors such as eggplant purple and maroon.
2. Add a Third or Fourth Color
   
   While you can work with just two colors, you can take it up a notch and add one or two more colors to your palette. One way to do this is to choose a color that's a different hue of your non-neutral shade. For example, if you're wearing white and orange, try adding a coral piece. If you chose fuchsia, you can bring in a shade of purple or pink. Bright blue works well with navy or baby blue. By choosing a different hue of a color you're already using, you'll create a cohesive look.
3. Use Accessories
   
   When it comes to colorblocking an outfit, accessories are an absolute must. With the right belt or clutch, you can bring your entire look together. After choosing your color palette, select a few accessories to compliment the outfit. They can be one of the colors already in your palette, or an entirely new color that coordinates with what you've already chosen. For instance: a bright blue dress with a black blazer would work well with a turquoise clutch and turquoise heels. STAY AWAY FROM ACCESSORIES THAT ARE EMBELLISHED AND DETAILED. After all, colorblocking is all about stylish simplicity.
4. Stay Away From Prints Colorblocking is exactly what it sounds like -- blocks of color. Prints aren't the best option for this styling method, as they would take away from the "blocked" visual. Stick to clothing, accessories and shoes in solid colors, in order to fully achieve that colorblocking effect.
5.  Wear Separates
   
   Colorblocking an outfit is easiest when you wear separates. Wearing a skirt and a shirt instead of adress will give you a chance to colorblock with ease. If you would rather wear a dress, top it off with a blazer or cardigan, or wear a pair of tights. Using several pieces of clothing and accessories will let designate one a color to each piece, creating the colorblocked look.
