Getting dressed during summer is no doubt a difficult task. In one end the mercury is soaring high and on the other end you are struggling to find the right outfit that will keep you cool and protect from sunburn. Also, many of us think that fashion takes a backseat during the peak summer months. However, where there is a will, there is a way! The scorching sun cannot supersede your fashion statement and make you look dull, because some colours and prints just do wonders to your summer fashion. One such print is floral prints. Floral, the iconic pattern on fabrics make you ladies look super-subtle, modern and up-to-date.

So, while you pack away the warm hues of winter and say hello to summer, re-arrange your wardrobe with lively corals and florals! Floral is one trend that can never go out of fashion, say experts. Floral prints can make or break your look depending on how you wear it. Pankaj Anand, Co-Founder and Designer of Sabhayta and Priya Sachdev, Founder of Rock N Shop shared a few tips with which you can go floral this summer:
1. Add colour to outfits: Pick your best old summer outfit and add it with some bright and freshening floral colours and floral print. This will add new life to your dull boring wardrobe and make it more stylish and trendy.
2. Bloom in bottoms: Floral print in your bottoms is your best bet if you do not want a splash of flowers all over you. You can team these with single coloured short kurti or tank tops. Long skirts and palazzos are making a stylish comeback so you can choose from those too. Just make sure that you keep the top simple.
3. Splash some (floral) on the top: Kurti and Jeans will always be in fashion, whether it's actress Anushka Sharma's 'Breakup' song or Deepika Padukone's airport look in "Piku". Be a little creative with your tops -- floral kurtis with your ice blue ripped jeans will be a best match to enhance your summer look.
4. Floral scarf or dupattas: If you want to play safe and don't want to go overboard with the floral print, then you can simply add a floral scarf or dupattas to your ensemble. A floral dupatta will go extremely well with a muted tone outfit.
5. Accessorise to add more charm: If you love everything floral, but want to do something beyond just outfits, then accessories are perfect for you. Floral patterns on necklaces, belts, hair clips, earrings, bags, bracelets, hats, head bands, footwear, and anything else that you can think of, can add vibrancy to even the simplest of looks. However, steer clear of too many accessories all at once, as too many colours will make you look like a flower pot.
As Neon florals are also doing the rounds, it is perfect for someone who loves experimenting and making a statement.
You can always style florals with the rest of our outfit or make the floral piece the main attraction. If you wear a blue and yellow floral skirt, always choose an existing colour in your skirt as your secondary piece of clothing. So, instead of pairing your floral skirt with a white top, you can pair it up with a blue top or a yellow top to get full marks on the fashion front!
