This season, prints are a hot choice in fashion, from florals to stripes to abstracts. Let’s take a look at how to wear prints this spring.

Printed tunics
Tunics in tribal prints, floral patterns and other funky designs are a top choice right now. You can pair a tunic with your favorite leggings, jeans, capris and more. This gorgeous Alberto Makali Embellished Tunic features a brilliant kaleidoscopic pattern and sleeveless style that makes it perfect for springtime. Partner this top with a pair of slim white capris and flat sandals for a fresh look that can’t be beat.

Pleated print skirts
Pleated skirts can be worn just about everywhere, from work to a night out. The Perfect-Pleat Date Skirt is just perfect with its bold floral pattern and A-line silhouette. Wear this skirt with a sleeveless turtleneck as shown for a feminine, modern look. Add a fitted blazer and bright satchel for the office.

Nautical striped sandals
The nautical trend is hot this year. No one wants you to dress head-to-toe in a sailor outfit, but adding nautical shoes or accessories is a great way to ease into this trend. Check out the Juicy Couture Sea wedge sandals. Available in coral or regal blue and white stripes, these wedges feature knotted fabric straps and a 4 1/4-inch heel. You can order these shoes now at Zappos.com for just $95.00.

What’s the perfect dress for a first date? Though your little black dress might be your go-to dress, a floral dress might be your best option.
Flowery prints are flirty, feminine and fun. And if you aren’t into all the pinks and purples, that’s okay — you can find florals that are a bit tone down. Look for floral prints in black and white, navy and cream and other fabulous neutrals.
If you are looking for a cute, floral dress at an affordable price, check out this vintage-inspired floral dress from Stephie’s Shop. This adorable dress features a floral print that isn’t “too much.”

One of the best things about this dress is the price tag. At just $23, how can you beat it? You can wear it on your first date with a pair of strappy sandals and your favorite framed bag. And then for the office, add a cardigan or blazer with a pair of Mary Janes.
