Spring Favorites

Even though right now it may seem like winter may never end, fear not! Spring is right around the corner! March is the official beginning of spring and all the greatness that it brings. It's just about time to watch the flowers start to bloom, feel the weather start to warm up, and inevitably see the fashion trends start to peak! Winter wardrobes can be fun, but spring brings a whole new opportunity to show off some new styles, new shoes, and new accessories. Here are just a few reasons why dressing up this spring will be the best:

1) Chevron Print; a Closet's Favorite

While it is definitely possible to wear chevron print everything all year round, something about the combination of green grass, blue skies, and sunshine really bring the pattern to its full potential. That being said, Flourish is stocked up on new arrivals in chevron print! From skirts to dresses to jewelry, no one's wardrobe should fall short. My favorite is this Spring Green Chevron Dress! The green, orange, and white combination is not only bright and light weight for the spring, but it's also the perfect option for St. Patrick's day that's coming up! To add a little something extra, I like the Pebbles on the Beach Necklace in Spring Mist.

2) Dresses, Dresses, Dresses

I love wearing dresses in the spring time, especially ones with unique patterns! This tribal print dress pops with hints of turquoise, purple, pink, and cream. It's a comfortable fit and will look great whether you're going to class, out to lunch, or on vacation! Even with all of the colors, this dress is simple to accessorize with silver or gold jewelry! 

3) Accessorizing is Made Easier

The most essential piece to any closet is a dress you can accessorize in more ways than one. Especially in the spring time, it's fun to bring out all the cute accessories that have been hiding under jackets all winter long. This cream-colored dress with bell sleeves is a great way to show off a necklace, a scarf, a belt, or just about any other accessory you can think of! In just two ways, I dressed this down for the day with a light blue chevron scarf, and then up for dinner with a pearl and gold necklace and a belt! Get creative!

4) Popping Pastels

A fun alternative to a spring dress is a cute pair of spring colored pants! These Skinny in Blush Pink pants by Seven For All Mankind go perfectly with the new Sleeveless Embroidered Tank. The outfit is comfortable, fun, and can be worn just about anywhere! The pale color combination is easy to match with many different accessories, but necklaces are my favorite.


These are only a few of my favorite spring styles! Make sure you check out all the new arrivals at www.FlourishBoutique.com!

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!)
