From subtle allover floral patterns, as at Giambattista Valli, to bold lawn prints like those at Oscar de la Renta and Emanuel Ungaro, flowers are simply stunning this Spring!

This is my first season really loving florals, but I feel like it's so hard to find a non-cheesy floral print!
Wow I pretty much want to own every single dress in those photos. Ha. Gorgeous.
And I love that ring!! Now I want to go shopping instead of going to work...sigh. Hehe. ;)
This is my first season really loving florals! But I feel like it's so hard to find non-cheesy florals.
i would love to see a woman in those hills i think i have an addiction to women in hills but those pants that guy had on were very very bad, but pretty hot dresses though

Gorgeous trend! I love all these florals! They are fresh and modern, without looking like your grandma's florals.
these dresses look like summer.. i can't get enough of floral dresses, even I have just around 5 such dresses, but i love them for 50 ;) and my new favourit accessoire is a flower brooch, which i pin up on almost everything, and if it's just my bag hehe
Never used to be a big fan of flowers... but this year, it's growing on me.
There are some lovely outfits there!

The first two and the last pic are georgeous! I love flowers in every variation on my clothes, so this is the rights post for me!
i'm a huge huge fan of florals, for me one can never have enough florals!! :)
Flowers, how lovely and romantic! I specially love the dresses from Oscar de la Renta and Luisa Beccaria. Such good inspirations for shopping for summer pieces!
I just today ordered a floral Lilly Pulitzer dress. I am not a floral gal but I am hoping I can pull it off. It is so nice to come here and be on trend. I feel so hip.

I adore big bold floral pieces. my fav florals are my bulgari sapphire floral earrings.

Amazing images! My favourite is the over-sized floral coat. It is so yum, it has such a vintage look to it!
Love mixing some booties with floral dresses. I esp. like the first floral bustier. So cute!

I know so many people skeptical of floral prints, but I love em! The dresses are gorgeous.
I love florals, they make me feel so beautiful and girly:) That clutch is gorgeous!
I love everything floral! I want a big flower ring like Samantha's in SATC movie.

My goodness, I love your site.
I don't know how I've lived without it for so long. Haha.
I really need to go back through all of your posts to get the pictures because, really, I have no idea how you find so many amazing pictures.
This post reminds me of Alannah Hill. She is a really, really, amzing, feminine designer from Australia.

I'm still having difficulty embracing florals, especially the ones I own. I could go for the D&G, though!
