Pretty as a Daisy

It’s official flowers are trending in a BIG way this Spring/Summer. Inspired by the 1950s and every thing pretty this trend is a must-include when emerging from the dullness that was winter. I’ve just bought a gorgeous pair of floaty floral shorts from YDE and was inspired to share some ways to add a little floral infusion to your look this summer.


I love these slight cat eye floral sunglasses from Dolce&Gabbana. Pick them up for R2290 at Sunglass Hut ( a little steep but worth it if you’ve been meaning to invest in a new pair for summer). I’m also a fan of these Oversized floral sunnies also D&G. You’ll find these priced at R2290 at Sunglass Hut.


Patterns are alive from ditzy to over-sized and in every shape and form, from floaty tea dresses, right down to swimwear and accessories. These two little dresses, both from Sissy Boy are a perfect way to pretty-up your wardrobe. Both dresses are R699 at Sissy Boy stores.

If you’re not too keen to go overboard with the floral look or don’t want to dent your pocket too much why not try a subtle floral head piece like this cute headband from Foschini. It’ll set you back just R40 and it’s cute as hell.
