The Ditsy Floral trend

The upcoming warm seasons found the leading fashion designers all obsessed with floral canvas artwork, covering the models with tons of itty-bitty flowers. We've all seen the traditional "ditsy" floral print - dainty, feminine, and totally classic, a total contrast of exotic flowers such as lilies or orchids that we've been seeing.

Floral prints are a wonderful wardrobe addition, so why not minimise your blooms this season and opt for tiny ditsy florals. At first glance, it’s a throwback to the 1990s, but floral prints can be fierce. It's all in how you style them.

A ditsy print is a very small scale all-over pattern that adds character to a classic shirt, dress, skirt, trouser or jacket. The design motifs are usually small and scattered or random rather than in rows or stripes. At a distance, a ditsy print looks almost like a solid colour, the scale is so small.

Floral accessories are never over-the-top, experiment with handbags, shoes, and jewellery. Floral accessories can easily find a place with any outfit and occasion. The best part is, you don't even have to worry about whether or not the colours match the outfit.

Here are a few chic Ditsy floral pieces that will ensure you are on trend this season.

Fashion trend: The slip dress

HOW TO WEAR A SLIP DRESS

A fashionable feature of the 90’s, is the slip dress and it is making an effortless impression as this season’s must-have item. Alexander Wang, Burberry and Paco Rabanne have all featured this classic dress in their latest collections.

It can be quite daunting trying to wear a dress which quite frankly looks like lingerie. Here are some fantastic tips so that you can wear the slip dress with a new found confidence.

Keep it cool, relaxed and simple. Try wearing a basic black slip dress with thin spaghetti straps and style it with strappy sandals.

There are hundreds of ways to wear a slip dress but one of the simplest and most classic ways to be styled daytime, you can wear turtleneck pullovers long sleeve shirts, blouses or basic shirts underneath your slip dress. If you're not prepared to go braless then a T-shirt worn underneath will give you the coverage you need.

Take your dress to dinner by wearing with an open cardigan. I really like the contrast and the mix of materials. For maximum effect add a pop of colour. Rock this elegant look with a pair of this season's sexy mules.

The slip dress lends itself extremely well to layering, and I could easily wear one underneath a jumper, or over a t-shirt.

Length is key. Too short and it looks too close to sleepwear; midi or floor-length looks more modern. Try wearing one under a skirt or another dress so you can see a bit of lace poking out underneath the hem. Or just opt for a silk camisole worn under a biker jacket with jeans.

Don’t be afraid to hide that waist, grab a belt, wrap it around the slip dress and show off your features.

The cut is key, anything on the bias is usually really flattering as it hugs the small part of your waist and skims over your hips and a good fabric is essential, too, a good quality silk will smooth out lumps and bumps, not accentuate them.

Here are a few chic slip dress pieces that will ensure you are on trend this season.

How to wear a White Blazer

(UPDATED CONTENT)

HOW TO WEAR A WHITE BLAZER

I love a crisp white blazer. It is Spring's answer to Fall's essential leather jacket. With white being a strong trend this season, the white blazer is ready for its spotlight! White is a very elegant and timeless colour but neutral so it goes with everything.

Wear a White Blazer with gem tones, neutrals, and animal or other prints. Or Use a White Blazer to create a backdrop to showcase texture like prints, leather, rouching, and pleating. Whether it’s for a day, work, or evening, a White Blazer can pull an outfit together. Here are my styling tips:

Play with layering and wear a tunic and skinny jeans, or colour block with a rich toned blouse and skirt.

Pair a white blazer with a whimsical Spring dress for an effortlessly pulled-together outfit or the blazer-and-shorts look works perfectly on both petite and tall girls. The Structure of the blazer really balances the feminism, softness, and casual vibe of floral pieces.

For those who think floral is too girly, and want to try something sexy. You can pair a white blazer with animal prints! The pure and clean white blazer makes the wild and sexy print dress so stylish. Keep the colour palette neutral, like black and white, then add a bold coloured bag to brighten up the whole look.

Instead of the usual LBD, try out a blazer and jumpsuit for your next party. The black-and-white contrast demands attention.

A white blazer looks amazing paired with pastels and pair with tough accessories for a cunning ladylike look.

A blazer can instantly add polish to a pair of jeans. Create a casual, yet sharp look with a white blazer, flared jeans, a flowy silk top, and pointy-toe pumps. Perfect for a casual work environment or your next lunch date.

Wear white on white. This is one of my favourite pairings. It looks sweet, elegant yet modern and chic. Too scared to rock all white? Totally don’t blame you by the way – I am like a stain magnet. Go for all black topped with a white blazer instead.
