How To Wear Floral Prints-Summer Florals For Los Angeles

Whether you're popping over to a gallery opening or heading out to a dinner party after a long day at the office, a floral-printed piece is always a smart go-to for summer in the City of Angels. But instead of opting for a saccharine-sweet patterned frock or romper, this summer we think you should pick up a sophisticated mid-length skirt in a subdued shade. Spotted out in L.A. last week, this local lady proves all you need is a cropped sweater, ankle boots, and a stylish hat to round out the season's coolest outfit. Trust, you'll want to make a date with this summer's hottest skirt style staple.
