Don’t Write Off the Floral Top

Far too many people are quick to dismiss floral clothes, The Devil Wears Prada-style. But florals are a tried-and-true print that manages to come back year after year, season after season. Sure, this pattern might not be a hot new trend (or groundbreaking, as Miranda Priestly would put it), but it’s fun. Letting trends inspire how we style pieces in our wardrobe can be an exciting creative project—but allowing them to dictate what we can and can’t wear? That’s where we draw the line. Go ahead and fill your closet with plus-size floral tops because you want to. It’s the only reason you need.

And, quite frankly, the floral blouses on offer this season are too cute to pass up. Think everything from delicate and bright to dark and sensual. (!) Spring might be when florals really come out to play, but these beauts can be worn any time of year—seriously. And considering how adorable plus-size floral tops are, you’re never going to want to stop wearing them.

Even when the weather is dark and stormy, florals remind us of brighter days. And if there are no flowers around to smell, you can always throw on a floral top. There’s just something about clothing covered in flowers that makes any ensemble cheerier. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why designers and brands release floral pieces every season—aside from the fact that they’re simply fun to wear, of course.

Yes, we love a good trend, but there’s something novel about wearing a style that’s always around. You can practically guarantee florals will never disappear from fashion—so you might as well keep a few floral tops in your wardrobe. Spring, summer, winter, or fall, there’s no wrong time to wear these cheery pieces.

Here at Unruly, we’re committed to featuring plus-size pieces we genuinely love and want to share with you. We’re connected to an affiliate revenue program, which means we might make a small commission when you buy products through our shopping guides. This in no way affects pieces we choose to feature, and it never will. (Confused? We’d love to answer any questions you have about this. Email us at beunrulyinfo@gmail.com!)
