Inspirational Accessory: Winter Blooms

COLOR, CUT, SEXY, STYLE, TRENDING, TRENDING, TRENDING

In the depths of winter, a crown of lavish flowers can give you just enough of the feeling of spring to keep you going till the vernal equinox. Oversized and monochromatic, roses add height and soft glamour. The ancient symbol of love brings feminine charm to any outfit and is especially romantic for a valentines look; whether you’re hanging out with your girlfriends or planning an intimate rendezvous, a ring of roses is the perfect adornment. The curved lines of multilayered petals soften features and de-emphasize sharp jaws. The added height elongates and lifts the gaze toward the face, focusing attention on the features. These big blossoms look great with both diaphanous dresses and chunky sweaters, so you can wear them on balmy days and chilly ones.
