flower power

 

While I love florals, I’m not a huge daisy print fan…until this shirt. This Sea top had me swooning- and even more once I tried it on. I’m officially a daisy fan and flower child now. Flower power, indeed.

Fashion Huntress tips:

1) I found these shoes in the heart of winter, which is how I got them so discounted. It’s hard to look past the current season, sometimes, and buy something “out of season.” But, it’s really the best way to find the best deals-by shopping out of season. Here’s a good article about “when to buy what” at the best prices. http://business.time.com/2012/10/26/the-best-times-to-buy-clothing/

2) If I’m wearing silk, I’m wearing a t-shirt underneath. Silk runs a risk of staining or becoming discolored as a result of sweat and/or deodorant. The best way to cut down on both dry cleaning and to keep your silk looking fresh is to layer a shirt underneath your silk top. I pick up “undershirts” at Forever 21, Gap, and Old Navy. You can normally find them for under $5 on sale and can wash them for quite some time without having any quality concerns. Buy them in neutral colors to ensure that they do not “show through” your silk top. 

Anyone else have silk tips? Thanks so much for stopping by readers! I appreciate it so very much!
