What to wear with floral dresses

[stuckwithmystyle]

I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m really happiest in floral dresses. For the past decade I’ve gone though cycles of basically buying a whole new wardrobe to reinvent my style, but when it comes down to it floral dresses are what I love.

The issue is, I want to make sure I don’t look outdated and uncool. I’m wondering if anyone could suggest what to wear with the dresses and how to style them.

For a bit of background, I’m approaching 40, petite at 5ft 2, size 10. During the summer I work outdoors and therefore am always in my gardening gear, so it’s more how to style the dresses in the cooler months. I absolutely can’t wear heels. Right now I’ve been wearing all my dresses with tights and knee high boots. Due to hair thinning, a few days ago I had my waist length hair cut to shoulders so I think I’m having a bit of a style crisis!

Oh and once again, @Floisme nails the thread.

This statement is ignorant and unnecessarily rude.
OP likes them (so do zillions of people) and floral prints are a classic.
They're not outdated.
Just make sure they're flattering....
Ex that the colours and print work with your skin/hair and the prints aren't overwhelmingly large or distracting

The OP stated ‘ I want to make sure I don’t look outdated and uncool’.

The floral dress trend is now outdated. Fact. People can still enjoy wearing them, but if someone is asking about trends, it’s not strange that people will discuss what is and what is not currently, er, trending 🤪
