The Perfect Outfit: How To Wear Florals, Miami Style
We like things with a little edge around here. Sure, summery florals are great, but by the time August rolls around, if we see one more flower-printed sundress or smock, we might simply expire of floral overdose. But a life without florals is no life at all, so in order to amp up our favorite print, we need to give it a sharp kick.
These two ladies we spotted during Miami Swim Week provided the no-brainer solution to punked-out prints: just add black! By putting the pattern on a black background instead of something a little softer, we still stay summery (without getting saccharine).
We've been fans of these Zara pants for a while, but Barbara Dobrzanska takes it from day to night with a healthy addition of leather. The sleeves on her jacket and her cutout heels take what would be overly match-y in any other hue and toughen the entire look. And, the classic Ray-Bans, of course, add a layer of cool that is undeniable.
