Busy Bee.

By: Jen Shoop

I recently mentioned my obsession with floral prints these days.  No sooner had I posted that than I came across a whole slew of what I’d call “micro-floral” prints — fairly busy patterns (hence this post’s title) that left me quite taken with the idea.  Case in point:

{Erdem, on sale for $1,597}

Hello, lover.  How gorgine?!  I’d wear this every day of the week and twice on Tuesday.  Probably with just some simple pink pumps (D + G, on sale for $448) and a big, happy grin:

Well, maybe a few accoutrements, in the form of these stunning petal earrings (Alexis Bittar, on sale for $205), a stark white clutch (Clare Vivier, $185), a ladylike white-and-gold watch (Henri Bendel, on sale for $98), and some retro-glam shades (Thierry Lasry is a hot brand that costs way, way, way too much…like $543 much in the case of this pair…gulp!; get the look for less with these Kate Spade lovelies, $138, or invest in a lucite variation from hot label Wildfox, $169.  But whatever you do, don’t buy these.  Unless you want your face to look like an emoji.):

I’d feel just like a retro movie star in this get-up.  Dig it.  For more affordable micro-floral dresses, check out this on-trend style from Tbags ($202); this sweet summery Club Manco strapless ($229); this tapestry-inspired Tory Burch shift (on sale for $416); this Jill Stuart find (on sale for $396); and one of these two lovely pieces from Suno, preferably not together (too much when worn as an ensemble, I think, but apart, they are glorious…$234 for top; $270 for bottoms):

Anyone else?!
