Romance has been with us for as long as there have been human beings upon the earth. So, perhaps you’re thinking: what is trendy about it? I concur! It’s just that I have been noticing a preponderance of romantic gestures in the marketplace from Miss Selfridge, Anthropologie, Miss Ferriday and Forever Unique, to name a few. We chiq’sters readily embrace roses and lace and it lets me know that our sense of the passionate, the picturesque and the poetic are all alive and well.
This extraordinary dress has been at the top of the chiq charts for weeks. Shared by Marija Katrina from Forever Unique, the strapless charmer has rose petals not only on the flower at the waist, but also tucked daringly into the neckline. £250
Anthropologie is the queen of romance, from the flowing dresses to the hand-embroidered cardigans, it’s all about an enchanted bohemian life, filled with beauty. Here is the Violet Gloaming Dress with a sweet velvet belt for $268.
Soft and pretty is this Blue Lace Insert Cami, Miss Selfridge, which brings a bit of British sophistication to the romantic genre. Only £12!
Lace is always romantic, even when it’s edgy. A Kim Kardashian favorite, Miss Ferriday, invites love with this Hanky Tunic Tank in Black/Nude for $149.
Don’t forget shoes! Made by Vanity Beauty, these marvelous thong slides match the sweetness of a summer wedding or a garden dinner party at dusk. Shared by Gratia. $72
Lastly, you can give yourself a bit of summer flair by adding just a hint of romance. This is the calli headband by Glamfoxx for $35. Even the photo is misty and fleeting . . . like your mood.
