As we ease out of the summer season, we need to prepare our closets for the rainy days ahead. But you don't have to stow away your floral dresses just yet. In fact, they make a cute transitional piece as the weather switches from sunny to drizzly. Don't let the wet season dampen your spirits! Here are five easy ways you can keep wearing your floral dress post-summer.
How to Wear
1. Layer it with a midi skirt.
Break the print by layering a solid-hued skirt over it. Trick is to stay in the same color palette to look polished and put together.
Try it with:
Denim midi skirt, P1695, ZARA, Greenbelt 5
2. Throw on a contrasting trench coat.
Floral dresses often come in soft, lightweight fabrics. So if you must layer on a coat, make sure you reach for one made with a relatively thicker material.
Try it with:
Faux leather overshirt, P3295, BERSHKA, SM Aura
3. Wear it with a pair of boots.
Swap your lace up flats and strappy mules for a pair of sturdy boots that are definitely made for city walking.
...or, you know, sneakers.
Especially if you're anticipating long walks for the day, opt for a pair of comfy kicks.
Try it with:
Leather heeled boots, P4995, MANGO, TriNoma
Chunky mesh sneakers, P3199, CHARLES & KEITH, Bonifacio High Street
4. Add denim to the equation.
Inject some cool nonchalance to your floral printed dresses by adding an oversized denim jacket.
Try it with:
Oversized coloured denim jacket, P1895, PULL & BEAR, SM Megamall
5. Wear it under a blouse.
Maximize your floral frock's cost-per-wear value by turning it into an office-appropriate piece. Simply layer a corporate-looking blouse or your fave button-down over it and you're good to go!
Try it with:
Block-coloured shirt, P2290, H&M, SM The Block
