Autumn Alert! The days are getting shorter, mornings are growing cooler, and my skin is becoming paler. All the signs of fall are in the air, which you’ve probably noticed, but don’t bury your summer floral print just yet. I bought this violet infused floral print dress on clearance at H&M in the spring and never wore it.
There’s no ‘Crossroads Trading Co’ in Switzerland so I decided to make it work because floral prints are ‘in’ for fall ’13. Try a leather jacket over, tights under, and create a darker fall-friendly color family for any shy floral number. I added a pop of NARS matte pink blush, a smidge of metallic color play by Drew Barrymore’s Flower Beauty, and a top knot for an afternoon out in Zurich…
<DETAILS> blush ~ NARS Limited Edition blush set, dress & heels (old) ~ H&M, eyes ~ Flower Beauty ‘Time Willow Tell,’ bracelet ~ Stella&Dot, jacket ~ Zara, watch ~ GUESS
Will you still wearing floral print this fall? Here’s a few of my favorite leather jackets below that can be paired over floral tops and dresses.

The tights and the black jacket definitely made this perfect for fall! I’m going to try this.
Thanks Lindsay!
That jacket + floral pairing is fab, Dale! Hugs & joy, T.
I love the dress and the way you transitioned it for fall. The leather gives the perfect amount of edginess to the floral print. And I love your hair up like that!
Thanks Niki – I always do a top knot when I’m feeling lazy except it really shows roots. lol. Time for highlights again.
I’d still wear floral even in the cold winter months. Pairing it with a leather jacket is how I’d do it too:)
Yea, it’s definitely the easiest way
The print of that dress is actually pretty fall perfect and the way you styled it is just fabulous Dale!

Thank you Rowena!
Perfect Dale. I don’t think you need to shy away from florals during colder months, especially those in darker shades and of course pairing it with a fierce leather jacket is just everything! Hehehe!
