Floral fashion frenzy, with a summer dress.

When I look in my closet I see 1 floral summer dress. This one. And I’m selling it again, so there’s actually not a single floral summer dress hanging there. While a few years ago, read about 9 years ago… (time goes so ridiculously fast) I almost only had floral prints for dresses. Is it not so trendy anymore? Or do I prefer a different print? Because although I hardly ever wear prints, except for stripes, which I don’t really consider a print, I find it almost necessary with dresses, to wear a print that is. That is to say…I almost only wear long dresses when I wear a dress. And if it is a solid one, it will become very compact and flat, like a column. On me that is, I am pretty figureless…..is that a word? No boops, no hips, no bum……

I am back from vacation! We went to Rye, of course, and cycled wit friends and just had a very relaxed time. I didn’t do anything blogging wise but did read al the lovely comments on my red outfit! Thank you very much!

Not a good floral summer dress

This dress is not my colour at all. And the print is a bit too sweet for me. But for The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book we had the theme Peach Fuzz and this dress looked very peach in the photo, not so in real life. I think it is a very cold shade of pink that makes no one attractive.

Plus, it’s 100% polyester, so it feels like I’m wearing a shower curtain. If the floral summer dress had been made of viscose or cotton, I think I would have kept it, because it is quite a cheerful dress. Still a bit to girly for me but hey, I have my days….

How I wear a floral summer dress that I don’t like….

I am wearing peach sneakers with it(no idea why I ever bought this colour). Why is peach fuzz Pantone’s colour of the year anyway? Does anyone look good in that colour? It is a shy and insecure colour to me. A denim jacket could not be missed on this dress. I still like that, a denim jacket on a dress. On any dress. A statement golden bracelet and earrings with pink tassels complete the look.

I browsed the internet to see if there were many floral summer dresses available at the moment. That was quite disappointing. I saw a lot of solid dresses. Not many prints at all. Well, maybe I’ll search for another floral dress after all. Because isn’t that part of summer? Wearing a frivol floral dress? I actually think it is.
