TREND ALERT: PIKO!

Okay...PIKO has been around for awhile, but it has yet to make its "ugghh how did I ever live without you?!" presence in the Midwest! Good news, lovelies: we are PIKO crazy here and can't wait for you all to jump on board. Rumor has it that PIKO is coming out with dresses, jackets, short sleeve shirts, you name it! They seem to be sticking around..and we aren't complaining! Now, we have had multiple questions on what PIKO tops actually are. One customer even brought her desperation to know PIKO to an all new level by asking us, "Okay, what's a Piko top? #over50 #noclue".

So, what's PIKO?
What if I told you that we had a top that not only feels amazing, but is also eco-friendly? Made mostly of bamboo, PIKO shirts are effortlessly stylish, comfy, and great for the environment! Hard to believe, I know. Not only that, they are also extremely figure-flattering no matter what body type you are. These shirts accent your arms by fitting snugly from mid-bicep to the wrist. Everywhere else on your body is loose fitting, helping you hide those second and third helpings of Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner ;)

Why PIKO?

Why NOT PIKO? You can literally wear your PIKO with anything. Honestly, they look great with anything. Currently I am rocking my brick color PIKO with an infinity scarf, brown fleece lined leggings, and leather boots. You could wear them with jeans and flats, layer them with a leather jacket, or add jewelry or a scarf! Super universal. And we LOVE versatility :)

Your Brick Red PIKO would look great for something as fancy as those Christmas pictures coming up and as casual as grocery shopping (in style, of course!)

Welcome to Boot Season!

There are so many reasons to love fall. Cooler weather, changing leaves, apple picking, pumpkin everything and, of course, football! But one of  my most favorite things about fall-- boot season! Yes, that's right. Boot and sweater season is a real thing, and all of us ladies here at Flourish are big fans!

We're also super glad skinny jeans came back into style a few years ago, or boot wearing would be a little more challenging. But give me a pair of skinny jeans and some cute boots on a fall day and I am one happy girl! Now if you are new to boot season, let me be the first to say welcome. You will love it!

The key to comfort during boot season is the skinny jean. Skinnies are jeans which are tight/fitted around the lower leg. They can be worn with flats, heels or wedges, but for the sake of this conversation, we're going to talk about them with boots. Most skinny jeans are tighter fitting throughout and have a bit of a stretch to them. So step one, put on your skinnies!

 

And step two really is as simple as putting on some sock then zipping up your boots! Fall boots come in all colors and styles. The most popular colors you will see are black, brown and gray. They will also vary from riding boots (no heel), heeled boots and ankles booties. There are so many styles of boots to choose from and you can view our current boot selection on the website.

Now if you're looking for a little something extra to add to your outfit, then bootsocks are the way to go! See how adorable!

 And if you're not sure what all you can wear with boots, that answer is easy-- everything! Sweaters, cardigan, tunics, coats, short sleeve tops...the options are endless. So, if you aren't already on the boot train, I'd suggest you join us-- for fashion sake. Trust me, you'll love it!

Happy Boot Season!
