Spring 2012 Trend Alert: Florals


Floral prints were all over the runway at the Spring 2012 Ready-to-Wear shows- shown by the collections of Marni, Karen Walker, and Dries Von Noten below. According to Elle Magazine, the Flower Girl trend consists of "bold blossoms in vibrant hues and conspicuous patterns sprung up on the runways, worn head to toe and everywhere else in between."

Everywhere I go, stores seem to be carrying spring- spirited floral items, many of which are fairly inexpensive (which is always a plus!)
