Dark Garden

Not feeling the super bright colors of Spring quite yet? Even though the flowers of Spring haven’t bloomed,  that doesn’t mean you can’t wear them! Look edgy while still looking fresh by wearing dark florals. Also known as “winter florals”, this type of trend includes prints that are dark, edgy, and powerful. Dark florals put a fresh spin on the idea of flowers in the winter.  This trend is great to wear as we transition from winter to spring and has a little bit of a 90s grunge feel.

From tank tops to dresses, blazers, and Doc Martens, dark floral prints are an eye-catching trend this season. Winter florals allow you to wear a fresh, feminine look without being over the top. The idea of wearing a floral dress in this type of weather may seem strange, but you can pull off the look by pairing it with tights, a leather jacket, and a chunky scarf.

Florals no longer need to be old-fashioned and boring, as many fashion designers have been proving recently. Give yourself a break from the dull neutral colors of winter and add an edgy twist to your wardrobe with some vivid and dreamy floral pieces.
