Florals look different by the water than they do at a garden party. They get brighter, looser, sunnier — the kind of blooms that belong with bare feet and salt air. They show up embroidered on a caftan, covering a swimsuit, or crawling up a linen matching set.

I like to keep the styling light from there, leaning on pieces with natural texture to compliment the print or motif. A woven bag, a flat sandal, a piece of shell jewelry, an easy hair accessory.

It’s floral dressing with more freedom, made for sun-filled plans built around color, texture, and bare feet.
