The floral skirt trend, BEHOLD, and watch the season bloom. Whether wispy romantics gauzes, or structured A line cottons – find your perfect floral skirt and add a stripe for simple summer fun. A straw hat and wicker bag, and you are summertime ready.
It helped that summer sunlight was in abundance when we took these snaps. You can see the bold floral and stripes in their full saturated color.
Tulips were everywhere on this colorful day. Behind me, yes, and in my courtyard, and city streets. Flowers were even being spotted on mannequins, as below in an Upper East Side Pharmacy window!
Fulgent red tulips as long as my hands, lined the city streets in their wrought iron guarded patches. Crimson red, so crisp and pure.
Everything floral is in full bloom this season, but the floral skirt trend is my favorite. A floral skirt or shorts, for that matter, allows for a playful pattern mix- such as stripes- or even gingham checks. Some favorite floral skirts and here by Asos, and here in a gingham check and floral combination- pattern mixed and ready for wearing with a simple tee or cami.
More flowers you say? Ok, if you insist on the inspiration of this floral skirt trend!

Below, I am in the courtyard of my co-op. I am so grateful to be living in the heart of Manhattan, and still have flowers at my doorstep.

Lets mix these images up! The Floral skirt trend and the photos of the blossoms that inspire it.
A smilier pattern mix was last seen here .
I THINK WE ARE EXPERIENCING A FULL-ON FLORAL BOMBOGENESIS ! A NEW WORD, I JUST INVENTED!

What do you think of the floral skirt trend? Too girly, or just right when mixed and shaken?
LET ME KNOW, YOU KNOW HOW! WISHING YOU SUNSHINE AND A PROFUSION OF FLOWERS, ALL YOUR OWN!
Oh I just love your skirt!! I’m so into florals these days and have a couple floral dresses but I need to find a skirt. I love how you styled it!
I am so glad, yes, to florals, femininity, and anything inspired by nature. Thanks so much!

Now that you mention it, it does look like one piece! Funny to see it with fresh eyes!
I hope all is well friend.

I’m all for flower prints, the more the merrier. Not too girly at all, if you choose wisely. Bring on the full-on flower Bombogenesis, I’d say! I love the bold florals of your skirt which is offset by the striking striped top and the hat. Oh, and I love your purse too! xxx
Thanks Ann for your thoughtful comment. I did try to bring the sweet factor down a tad ! But flowers rule this season !!
❤️ Elle
Floral, if done right, as you have shown, is perfect for everyone!
Thanks so much Catherine !

Thank you! Have a lovely weekend,

I love the print mixing with the florals and the stripes together! 🙂 It’s such a lovely combination, and one I should do more often. I have lots of stripes, not so many florals, haha! 🙂 It’s nice to see your inspiration, I agree floral skirts are beautiful. I don’t have any, but I am wearing my floral maxi dress as a skirt today! 🙂 Hope you had a lovely week and have a nice weekend ahead of you 🙂 We went out for dinner yesterday and I’m catching up with a blogger friend today so it should be fun!… Read more »
I am so glad you are going to have a good time with your blogger friend. I love the idea of a floral maxi as a skirt. You are very clever and I gifted stylist. The weekend, so far, is wonderful. Enjoy yours .

What a great idea to mix the blue and white striped top (gorgeous) with the floral skirt. It is such a nice combination and so good for your body shape. And tulips! I bet they are from Holland. 😉

Thanks Greetje,
