A Rosette By Any Other Name

April showers bring May flowers. This May, these flowers will be in the form of rosettes. That's right. Rosettes are perfect for the spring just like flower accessories, floral prints, and ditsy prints. If you're wondering what rosettes are, they are a cousin to ruffles and flower accessories. They're basically ruffles that are made into the shape of flowers. I will admit that I'm in love with this trend. Maybe that's why everything I've been buying lately has had a rosette on it. If you love rosettes as much as I do, check out my little rosette finds below.

For a wedding, prom, or dance wear rosette headband or rosette hair clip in your hair with either loose waves or pulled back into a sleek bun. You can wear a rosette necklace with a strapless dress or a tube top. A rosette bracelet would look great with any sleeveless top. Wear a rosette dress with with a pair of ditsy tights, ballet falts, some hoop earrings, and a feather hair clip. Pair a rosette skirt with a striped top, a bow headband, some paint splattered leggings, stillettos, and a cuff bracelet. Pair your rosette top with some bleached jeans, slingback shoes, bangle bracelets, and a bib necklace. A rosette hat can be worn with a cute sundress and a pair of flip flops for a vintage beach look. You can also carry a rosette handbag and wear a floppy hat for this look. Let me know if you have any other ideas on how wear the rosette trend.
