Tap into the power of flowers

It is for that reason that you need to add flower accessories to your wardrobe, if you haven’t already. The greatest advantage of flowers is they fix bad hair days. Just clip one in your hair and it can act both as a puff holder and decoration.

How to wear flower accessories
Use a flower as a brooch on a dress. Just remember, flower should to be small and attach it to one side of the dress. Only plain-coloured dresses can be accessorised with a flower to brighten them up.
Big flowers can be worn with traditional wear, such as gomesi, at the beach and at outdoor flashy events For traditional wear, ensure that you flower matches with your sash.
Small flowers, in form of hair clips, look best with elegant dresses. This can be worn on one side of the head with the hair held back or in the center if the hair.
Stick to two colours at most, if the hair flower is big.
The colour of the flower should match with either colour of your dress, shoes, handbag or jewellery.
