TROPICAL PRINTS ARE IN FOR SPRING & SUMMER

There are certain staples in spring fashion, pastels, lace, and florals among them. But this spring, florals are getting a makeover in the form of stylized Hawaiian motifs, and they’re taking over Hollywood. If traditional floral prints seem stale and old fashioned, try this new take on the fashion staple instead.
BeyoncĂ© boldly rocked a pair of Stella McCartney Hawaiian print silk pants on a recent outing. And she even had the fashion fortitude to match the already attention getting pants, with bright yellow pumps. Grab this $60 cropped printed trousers from Zara for a similar look.LaLa Anthony got in on the Hawaiian trend, wearing a Givenchy ‘Bird of Paradise’ Resort 2012 dress to a recent taping of Good Day New York. She completed her look with an on trend topknot hairstyle, and Christian Louboutin ‘Summerissima’ platform sandals. This $148 Muse dress from Zappos gives the same sophisticated silhouette, and fun floral vibe as LaLa’s designer frock.Rihanna, who’s often on the forefront of what’s hot in fashion, took on a decidedly less colorful version of the Hawaiian print trend, donning a pair of Alexander Wang printed high rise skinny jeans. She paired her floral pants with a chambray blouse, and Alexander Wang ‘Joan’ pumps. Get the same understated Hawaiian floral denim look with these $54 ASOS skinny jeans in midnight Hawaiian print.
