How to Wear Floral Prints | J.Crew Spring 2013

The latest batch of Liberty Art Fabrics for J.Crew pieces have supplied us with ample reason to start the process of styling out some easy, Spring-friendly looks. These sleek tailored essentials, covered in even brighter floral-print patterns, are actually much easier to mix and match than you might (initially) think. For the casual style-setter, opt for subtle stripes paired with bold floral shorts. For the sophisticate, don't discount the power of a beautifully embellished Peter Pan collar and denim jacket combo to hold its own against floral pumps. And for the girl who borrows from the boys, there's nothing a slick metallic oxford and two-toned jean trouser can't do to punch up a floral-infused tee.
