Fashion Fundamentals: Add flowery touches to your summer style

Floral print in your bottoms is your best bet if you do not want a splash of flowers all over you. You can team these with single-coloured short kurtis or tank tops. Long skirts and palazzos are making a stylish comeback, so you can choose from those too. Just make sure that you keep the top simple. 

Kurti and jeans will always be in fashion, whether it’s actress Anushka Sharma’s Breakup song or Deepika Padukone’s airport look in Piku. Be a little creative with your tops — floral kurtis with your ice blue ripped jeans will be the best match to enhance your summer look.

If you wear a blue and yellow floral skirt, always choose an existing colour in your skirt as your secondary piece of clothing. So, instead of pairing your floral skirt with a white top, you can pair it up with a blue top or a yellow top to get full marks from the fashion police. 

Why not go for a stunning plain saree with a striking floral blouse or vice-versa? It’s minimalistic, quirky and it will stand out. The best part about this combination is that it goes well with both day and night functions. So go ahead, experiment and have some fun like Kangana Ranut. 

Whether it’s a floral print lehenga with a smart crop top, or a plain floor length anarkali with a floral print dupatta, wear one of these and step out in style to your best friend’s wedding. Also, summer doesn’t need to be bling-less. Check out how Samantha rocked a nude floral lehenga by pairing it with a sequined fringe cape. 

If you want to play safe and don’t want to go overboard with the floral print, then you can simply add a floral scarf or dupattas to your ensemble. A floral dupatta will go extremely well with a muted tone outfit.  

If you love everything floral, but want to do something beyond just outfits, then accessories are perfect for you. Floral patterns on necklaces, belts, hair clips, earrings, bags, bracelets, hats, head bands, footwear, and anything else that you can think of, can add vibrancy to even the simplest of looks. However, steer clear of too many accessories all at once, as too many colours will make you look like a flower pot. Neon florals are also doing the rounds. It is perfect for someone who loves experimenting and making a statement.
