Sad to say, there are no signs of winter waning in the Northeast. In fact, there was a fresh layer of snow on the garden beds when I woke up on Presidents' Day. I'm so ready for the early spring that the groundhog promised. For now, I guess, my surrogate spring flowers will have to be the floral print handbags and shoes that I'm seeing in magazines, stores and online. My Fashion Over 50: Pick of the Day are the Poetic Licence Selene shoes above. I love them because they've got a fun floral print, peep toes and a small (1 1/2 inch), but very trendy cork wedge. And they're only $29.58.
But how does one style floral print shoes? For me, easy styling starts with either a blue denim skirt or something white--a white denim, longer cotton skirt or trousers. Below are a few basic examples. I say "easy styling" because white is very hot this spring, so there are lots of white skirts and slacks.
Jones New York Long Tiered Skirt (White) for $99
Jones New York White Denim Button Down Skirt (Woman) (White) for $29.99
Laundered Linen Casual Trousers for $91.20
Some designers seem to feel the more white the better this spring. So you may want to match your white skirt or trousers with a white top, like the Nue Options® Solid Ruched Front Stretch Blouse below. It's been reduced from $44 reduced to $26.50 at Bealls online department store. The blouse also comes in bright yellow.
White and bright yellow is another "hot combination" this spring.
