Thought you waved buh-bye to billowy tops and flower-printed dresses when September first hit? Think again, because there are new rules for cold weather fashion this time around, and feminine florals are here to stay. The winter months are usually draped in black wool sweaters and mud-colored cardigans, but this season the style world is hanging on to spring-y symbols with flowers, pastels, and flirty shapes all coming together for the perfect chilly weather pick me up! No one wants to go through half the year in a wardrobe that looks like it’s in morning of May, so find your way to these of-the-moment boutiques and wrap yourself in a bouquet-clad wardrobe until real buds bloom again.

The best investment for any autumn wardrobe is a quality, versitile blouse. This Rozae Nichols cotton and silk top ($315 at Zoe) is the perfect addition to any closet. The flattering cut leaves room for you to nosh on the desserts you’ve skipped all summer, while the colors stay true to fall’s palette without seeming dull or mundane. We love this piece with a pair of wide-leg jeans or matched with slim work pants to brighten up your Monday trek to the office. The best part about this top is the single flowing flower that cascades over the entire garment. Everything from the romantic bud that engulfs the shirt to the soft movement of the material is complete perfection. This is a winter floral done right. Simple, elegant, and a total show stopper.

The only thing worse than walking avenue blocks when the temperature is below freezing, is walking those blocks in uncomfortable shoes. The key to a perfectly casual chilly-weathered look is a pair of fabulous flats.

These Bloom Flats ($115 at Barefoot Tess) are the perfect day-to-day shoe for this season. Not in a particularly sunny mood this morning? Thats fine because the flower detail is detachable, so you get two pairs of shoes in one!

The whimsical elegance of prom-perfect corsages and childhood’s baby breath is forged in 24 karats by Elizabeth Cole’s crystal flower cuff ($285 at Intermix, where Store Adore shoppers save $50 on a purchase of $350 or more). The perfect option for the woman who wants to rock the winter flower trend without going overboard, an antique glow and glittering Swarovski crystals make this striking accessory a must-have this season. Like a crown for your wrist, this dazzling adornment is sure to make you feel like royalty.

On dreary winter days there is nothing more convenient than slipping on a dress and heading out the door. This Flower Mini Dress from AKA New York ($318 at ShopBop) is a fabulous LBD with just the right amount of color. The shot of liveliness delivered by the electric petals at the dress’s hem is fun and funky- exactly what we want in a season of snow and frost!

So what if flowers don’t grow in December? Let them bloom in your closet! Carry the flowing flowers of spring and summer into you colder-weather wardrobe and enjoy these bright bursts of color all year long.
