Spring Dress

Accessorize your floral dress for Spring

We’ve all seen it;  a cute flowery Spring dress worn with sneakers or bland sandals and a handbag holdover from the Winter months.  Don’t sell your lovely floral print spring dress short – accessorize with a lovely scarf, shoes, and a handbag to achieve a carefree but polished look – a bit of fun with attention to detail can make a just the right statement this time of year.

The big trend in denim pants is ankle scraping flares with high waists – kind of  a 70’s / 80’s fusion:

Matching Shoes and bag with Pastels

How do you match your shoes and handbag to a pastel dress?

Women’s’ shoes have been all over the map color-wise for the last decade or so.  Maybe I’m a bit old fashioned but I think shoes should at least match your outfit or complement it.

I am an approved affiliate for Zazzle and this post contains affiliate links that may provide me a small commission if you shop through them. This is how I can continue to bring you amazing content

When making this set I thought the bag and shoes should be in the same color family as the dress but a matching pastel seemed to disappear against the lovely print.  A darker wine/burgundy enhances the soft pinks and makes a striking statement.  The Joan Burgundy tote from Brenda Macleod is functional and works with just about any outfit.

Pastel Dress

Lets see how the designers at Polyvore match shoes with pastel dresses:

Pretty Pastel Spring Dress

Nothing says “Spring” more than Pastels.

Slightly de-saturated colors are a natural progression from the winter drudgery before the wild bold colors of Summer take over.

Pastel (color)
