I feel like we are all excited for The Devil Wears Prada 2, and these florals for spring do feel kind of groundbreaking. The Devil Wears Prada is one of my favorite movies. I can quote a lot of the lines, and anytime I see it on TV, I let it play. There is nothing better to watch while I bake or cook.
It’s actually the first adult book I read. I was probably a little too young to be reading it, but I loved it, and my parents definitely ascribed to the philosophy that if I wanted to read, it didn’t necessarily matter what that book was. I loved the book and remember taking it with me when I went to work with mom one day. I wonder what her colleagues thought!
I have a much bigger appreciation for the subject matter and definitely the fashion these days. Back when the first movie came out, I did like fashion, but I’m not sure I knew how to spell Gabbana back then either. I do now, and the long sleeve dress in these photos is in fact Dolce and Gabbana.
I love this dress with the bell sleeves and puffy shoulders paired with the mini hem length. The rich colors of the fabric set it apart from everything in my closet. I have nothing else with that heavy golden glow that makes me think of enjoying a sunset. I paired it with more metallic for the accessories since that’s really what this dress says to me when I look at it.
The white floral dress is a newer addition to my wardrobe. The flared skirt is my favorite part about it. It moves and flows in the prettiest way. I also like the split square neckline that isn’t like anything else I have. It changes up what could otherwise just be a white floral dress.
Though I think it would look fabulous with white accessories, I popped it with pink shoes but kept the bag more neutral.
I hope this shows you that even if florals for spring aren’t groundbreaking, they are still worth wearing. I wonder what Miranda would say about florals for fall or winter …
