Spring is here and flowers are finally starting to bloom here in Southern California. The weather is starting to warm up as well as the racing! As we gear up for the $1 million Santa Anita Derby on April 4 at Santa Anita Park, I turned to California-based online D & A Boutique at shopdanda.com. Their styles are perfect for the biggest day of racing at Santa Anita and at a price that the budget-conscious lady can afford. Prints are definitely in this season, so here are three affordable looks inspired by D & A Boutique that will keep you feeling fun and flirty in floral.
Look No. 1
You're sure to turn heads in the Chandelier Room at Santa Anita Park in this ultra-feminine ensemble. What I love most about this dress are the capped sleeves and its length, which comes right below the knee. Since the dress is multi-colored, you can go in almost any direction with accessorizing, so I decided to accent this look with a fascinator and pair of shoes that bring out the sea-foam green tones in the dress. The hot pink clutch provides another splash of color, and the buckle from the clutch matches the adorable horse stud earrings. A sure bet!
Want the look? Here’s where to find it: Rose Print Midi Dress, $58, Morgan & Taylor California Fascinator, $48, Gojana Horse Stud Earrings, $35, Charles & Keith Buckle Wallet, $49, Point The Way single-sole heels, $32
Look No. 2
If you're aiming for a more casual look for your day at the races, this comfortable floral romper may be the way to go. The sheer lightweight material on the sleeves and back of the romper will keep you cool while you’re enjoying the infield festivities at Santa Anita, but there is enough leg showing to make any lady feel a little sassy. A simple straw hat and charm bracelet will compliment this romper nicely as it will stand out for itself! I suggest wearing flats or a small wedged heel to finish this look.
Want the look? Here’s where to find it: Floral Romper, $45, wide-brimmed straw hat, $44, Cotton Pearl & Horse Head Pawn Bracelet, $28, Ipanema Maya Studded Sandals, $28
Look No. 3
There is so much more than what meets the eye in this printed jumpsuit from D & A Boutique. This “black and blue” one-piece has a deep-V neckline in the both the front and back which is held together by a gold necklace. Less is definitely more with this ensemble, so I kept it very basic with a pair of gem earrings and single-strap sandals in black. If you're looking for a bit more to add to this piece, try a black floppy hat!
Want this look? Here’s where to find it: Print Jumpsuit, $32, Surf The Web Blue Texture Gem Earrings, $8, My Delicious ChaCha Black Patent Single Strap Heels, $22
