Say It With Flowers

Say It With Flowers

Sometimes it’s what you say and how you say it.  Have you heard the phrase, “Say it with flowers?”  There’s a reason for the phrase — flowers really do help people say things! If you can’t tell, I’m screaming “I’m ready for spring!” Sorry guys I’m just not a winter person, and it seems this season has lasted forever.  I’m ready to put it all behind me for more sunny days.  Don’t get me wrong, I have a deep appreciation for the four seasons.  After all, I wouldn’t be able to wear my cozy sweaters, luxurious scarves, or fabulous furs if it weren’t for winter, but today I just seriously needed a pick-me-up.   To combat the winter blues, I decided to wear a luscious vintage floral outfit.  This prized pattern provided the perfect pop of color to brighten up my day.  I love the vivid print because of its femininity, and the lightweight style is also perfect for a Valentine’s Day date. So let’s hear what outfits you wear to combat the winter blues?

This top has been sitting in my closet forever, but the timing of wearing it now seems perfect. Some women question whether graphic tops are appropriate when it comes to their age.  I truly can’t say I’d chosen not to wear my top because of that concern.  I simply forgot about it.  My response to those types of questions will never change… “It’s All about Style”! If you can’t tell by now I’m not an advocate of clear-cut rules when it comes to style; however, my recommendations pertaining to wearing graphic tops is to consider some basic things. First and foremost, ask yourself how comfortable you feel wearing the top.  It may be a great fit, but if you don’t feel comfortable wearing it you will stick out like a sore thumb.  Hence, your confidence level and outfit should be like peanut butter and jelly; or like husband and wife.  They just go together, and one without the other is incomplete! 🙂 Another more important thing to consider is the message displayed, and whether it portrays who you are.  Graphic tops obviously call more attention to the person wearing them, so it’s always good practice to use good judgement about what they...
