How To Wear Florals In The Fall

You probably think that floral patterns are reserved for the spring and summer months, when the buds are starting to bloom and the trees are robust with leaves. Before you get ready to pack away all your florals as the leaves begin to fall, consider these ways to wear them in the cooler weather.

1. Dark Florals

While it's true that bright florals may clash with the muted colors of fall, dark florals are definitely a possibility. Think along the lines of brown, navy, deep purple, and even black. The traditional fall colors of red, orange, and yellow are also ideal, as long as they are darker tones. Bright florals can be worn, if they are on a darker background; for instance, yellow florals on a dark brown or black background would look great.

2. Leather Pairings

Leather instantly takes anything dainty and makes it tough. Pairing a floral dress with a leather jacked or leather biker boots is the perfect mix of sweet and spicy. A floral blouse with a pair of leather pants will have you looking elegant yet powerful. Even subtle touches of leather, like a leather cuff or leather choker, can elevate that floral pattern to a fall-appropriate look.

3. Long Sleeves

Any pattern instantly becomes fall-worthy if it has long sleeves. A long-sleeve button down in a floral pattern can be worn with a pair of distressed jeans, or a long-sleeve waffle knit top would look great with a pair of corduroy pants- another trend that's coming back this fall.

4. Floral Sneakers

If you like the look of floral in the fall, but aren't quite into the thought of wearing it all over, give a pair of floral sneakers a try. It's just the right touch of floral to bring back fond memories of summer, but it won't overdo it to the point where it feels out of place in the chilly weather.

5. Floral Jacket

The cooler months of fall require a cover-up, and there's no better way to wear it than with a floral pattern. It'll keep you warm and stylish, all at the same time. A floral scarf in a matching pattern is a great accompaniment.
