Floral for Work, Floral for Fun.

Happy first day of spring! I'm a huge fan of floral and wear it all year long however, but spring is probably the perfect season to frolic in a floral dress. I originally took this photos for Popsugar + Piperlime but thought I'd share how I would style a floral dress for work and for fun! 

Hope everyone is having a great week! Let me know which look you prefer! xoxo

Seriously digging your polished take on florals. If only we had spring weather on the East Coast...

We are hosting a fun spring accessory giveaway on our blog with pieces from two sustainable fashion brands (a twofer)! Would love if you checked it out :)

Good thoughts from Washington, D.C.

It's fun to see two totally different looks in one dress! I prefer dresses that are versatile because of their multiple uses.

I love this outfit,plus it's great showing differents way to style the same item!

This floral dress looks just great :-) Like it really much !

http://siblingsscrapbook.blogspot.com

I love it with the blazer! Denim jacket on looks good, too but there's something about the dress paired with black and heels that makes it look more grown up, like a classic touch to a fun attire!! I love your style :)

I love posts like this, it is great to see the same piece used in two different looks. Its great to see a gorgeous 'real girl' use her investments wisely!
I find that it is difficult to dress down a vibrant piece like that, but this inspires!
love the outfits.

Lovely dress!
Like two outfits but the last is incredible:)

http://soyfeliz99.blogspot.com.es/

I like the first outfit very much! I love how the blazer adds so much class to a rather casual dress.

Love this look, although I marvel at how you can wear stilettos at a construction site lol

I love how you styled the dress from day work to evening. Totally inlove the floral dress!

That floral dress is so beautiful!! Great outfit!!

Blazers and denim jackets are a necessity I think, just like you wore it, it can really change an outfit from casual to dressy.

http://emmastyleguide.blogspot.com

This dress is beautifully structured, and I love how it looks more formal with the blazer and then toned down with the denim jacket. Lovely photos :)

Great execution of both looks. Aimee you are an awesome stylist ;)

Loved the one with the denim jacket <3

http://shallowtrend.blogspot.com.mx/

Is it weird that I love this outfit so much because of its contrast with the background? The floral with the construction - execution is perfect.

Shopping for a  flower girl dress and finding an affordable one used to be a difficult task.  With the increase of quality online flower girl dress stores, things have gotten considerably easier

I have the same dress and wear it with a neutral jacket, too! It's super chic without any effort!
