How To Style A Floral Dress
- Summer Fashion
- July 9, 2025
Floral dresses are so romantic and charming and add a feminine touch to your outfit whether you are going to a special event or lunch with girlfriends. You really could take a floral print dress and dress it up or down depending on the occasion. The floral pattern is visually pleasing and has the ability to make you happy and uplifted! We believe a floral pattern actually makes you feel more welcoming.
Floral dresses are timeless and don’t go out of style. You will find them in simple sundresses to more extravagant dresses for events like weddings or galas. Floral dresses are available in different dress styles – A – Line, sleek, bohemian, super casual or maxi. It doesn’t matter…pick a floral dress for your body type….what ever your comfort level is what you should wear!!
We have put together a roundup of our favorite floral dresses and created a style guide to give you an idea of the versatility of a floral dress!
How To Style A Floral Dress
We have picked out a few of our favorite floral dresses this season. We have styled them in a variety of ways and hope you like them!
What To Wear With A Floral Dress
Pumps, Espadrilles or Sandals
Stylish shoes and flats are so important but so is comfort. When you are going to an event where you are going to be on your feet for long periods this is of the utmost importance. Simply put you will not have fun if your feet hurt!! The Bared Towhee Sandal gets high marks for comfort but still looks stylish! The price point is a little higher but keeping your feet in good shape is so important!
Jackets or Wraps
We always like to bring along a wrap or jacket to keep warm either in the evening if it cools down but also because the air conditioning in many restaurants is excessive! The Frank & Eileen Travel Wrap (It is cotton so if you get itchy wearing cashmere or wool this one is for you) and the White & Warren Cashmere Wrap are two of our favorites! Both of these wraps are a necessary item to travel with as planes can also be chilly.
Jewelry
Jewelry adds so much to any outfit! It is like the frosting on the cake! The beauty of jewelry is whatever accessories you pick definitely reflects your own personality so what we picked to go with these pretty dresses might not be what you would pick!! That is ok! Loved the gold and glass earrings at Anthropologie. These earrings would be so good any day of the week with denim! Alexis Bittar has been one of our favorite jewelry designers and this gorgeous bracelet is a winner!
Bags & Accessories
We found a beautiful bag from Frances Valentine! The Hen Wicker Basket comes in five colors and features chunky lucite handles, little metal feet stands and a ball and pin closure. This bag would be a permanent fixture in your closet! J McLaughlin always has stylish accessories and we love this little Bambi Crochet Bag!
Floral Dress Outfit Ideas
Floral Dress # 1
This beautiful floral dress from Cleobella would transition well from summer to fall! In the summer months bringing along a wrap for those cooler evenings is a good idea but as we move into the cooler months a linen jacket like this one from Tommy Bahama would work well.
Floral Dress # 2
Blue and white floral prints are really having a moment now! This dress from Tuckernuck is perfect and the colors are simply summer! Style with a beautiful necklace and earrings from Susan Shaw and you are ready to go!!
Floral Dress # 3
Bright and happy floral prints like this put you in a cheerful summer mood! The dress from Farm Rio is typical of their bold prints and bright colors. Love this pretty coral necklace and (splurge) the white denim jacket!
Floral Dress # 4
Blue and white floral prints are not hard to find this summer but this dress stood out! It is figure friendly for everyone and goes great with a dark denim jacket for the fall. You also could dress it up for a special event. The heeled sandals are very stylish but comfortable too which we all like! The bag from Dune London is one of our favorite bags this season!
Floral Dress # 5
Loving the bold print on this feminine dress with these great sandals! Wear this dress to a daytime wedding or event! The sandals are very neutral and would go with so many outfits in your wardrobe!
Hope you all had a wonderful holiday and are enjoying this beautiful weather. Thank you for reading and don’t forget to subscribe to get all of our newsletters regarding fashion, beauty and lifestyle!!
