Spring Trend: Roses Are In Full Bloom

The roses certainly aren't blooming in The Hudson Valley today. We are in the middle of a nor'easter.  So let's think warm thoughts with this spring fashion trend. Like Miley Cyrus, we all can buy our own flowers, especially ones that do not fade. This trend is romantic and perfectly pretty. 

Scarlett Rosette Gown
A plunging neckline is softenned by a ravishing rosette. The dress is done in georgette, and I think it is gorgeous, if you can wear it. Under $200.

Anthropologie

Lele Sadoughi Ribbon Choker
Okay so it is really a gorgeous gardenia. But it easily can be a rosette, too. Any way you look at it, the color is fabulous!
