I remember when florals suddenly weren't just the predictable print for spring anymore, but became an IT-item. This was specifically linked to floral tea dresses and their prominence in the wardrobes of style icons such as Kate Moss and Alexa Chung a few years ago.



Obviously I was into it because GIRLY and COLOUR and me and my fellow adepts wore them year-round, with bare legs and sandals in summer or tights, boots and leather jackets in winter. But then the trend sort of fizzled out and I moved on to a slightly more mature style (sometimes). Floral dresses are now just one of the available options for summer rather than a staple wardrobe piece, and after years of surviving perfectly fine without new floral dresses, here I am wearing this beautiful piece from Minkpink.

The wild flower patch dress is currently on sale for just 29.40€ - it fits rather large, so I'd size down when you order. It has been on heavy rotation now that summer is back in full force slapping us down with heatwaves since the dress is so airy, light and fun. I'm wearing it with my absolute favourite item of the last few months: my Forever21 layering bra which I have in different colours to get me through the week. I'm so done with real bras, yo, and this one provides some extra coverage (nice for work) without looking like your underwear is on show.

Remember floral dresses, man? We're getting so old. Are you still into them?

  1. Keitof met die behatop! Beugelbeha's doen pijn bij mij; in de winter draag ik er gewoon geen maar sinds een maand of wat ben ik op zoek naar wat dekking voor onder zomerkleding maar behatops zijn vaak zo WARM (want dikke stof, ook al is het katoen)! Is deze luchtig?
    En bloemenjurken zijn gewoon voor eeuwig!

  2. JA, ik draag ze elke dag en het is het enige dat ik nog qua kleding kan verdragen met de huidige heatwave. Je kan ze ook gewoon als topje dragen trouwens, kei sporty spice.
