“What’s in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” – William Shakespeare
A bit of literature for you there! (Romeo and Juliet incase you were wondering)…
Following on from the summers floral trend, it’s the rose that’s this seasons must have flower- and what a beautiful flower it is!
There is something quintessentially English about the rose print, it reminds me of English tea parties, cakes and scones- how cute! But this seasons flower print has a slightly more gothic feel to it: Dark or bright coloured roses on black, feminine with an edgy touch. Skin’s actress Kaya Scodelario softens her rose print top (from New Look) with denim shorts, though we’d opt for some tights if you want to rock that look during these cold times!
If you’re not too girly like me then toughen up your rose prints with a biker jacket or a black blazer like our fave Hill’s star Lauren Conrad.
Rose prints are all over the high street right now in shops such as New Look, Dorothy Perkins, Topshop and Urban Outfitters. Online store ‘Motel‘ has some fab rose print dresses and as a bonus you can get 10% off until 11pm tonight (20th October 2009), just add the code crazy10 at the checkout!
Here’s a few of my favourites out there:
These romantic rose prints will certainly brighten up your wardrobe on these dull winter days.
What do you think of the rose print trend?
