Inspired by feminine designs and bold prints this Johanna Ortiz Splashing Flowers Printed Dress has gorgeous ‘Splashing Flowers’ in two tones. The two shades of the prints give us a choice to pair the outfit with two different shades of accessories. I chose a cactus green tone and croc brown shade. Green gives it simple and regal vibes while croc brown can take this dress from simple to edgy. Which one do you like?

Welcome to the month of June. Wow! we have entered into the end of the first half of the year. Well, June means summer, summer means beautiful dresses. I am beginning this month on a Royal note. This month was supposed to be the month of Royal Ascot, Trooping the Colour, Order of Garter Service and Garden Party. But thanks to COVID19, we are not getting any Royal style inspiration at all. In this month’s lookbook, you might get too many mentions of Royals. So please bear with me. Dedicating this look to the Royal Ascot.
