Trends.... they come and go. But they are SO interesting. What goes on the catwalk, what happens politically, seasonally, universally....influences what colours are 'now', what scatter cushions dot our couches, whether we sprinkle pomegranates on our salads, queue for a taco at the latest portable funky food van or roll up the sleeves of a fabulous military jacket. As neon slowly disappears into the horizon, taking the Flashdance soundtrack with it.... there's always a period where it all goes back to basics. This is NOW. Ancient grains are popping up on menu's all over town, heirloom vegetables, monochromatic classic fashion and music that sounds like it belongs in the background of a barn dance with a scruffy waistcoated man tapping his foot in timely agreeance.
Enter the floral trend which is not really a trend because
it is and always will be my preferred method of floral styling. But
everything is pointing to 'origin' and right now it's a celebration of
simplicity, the 'organic' and the roots. This weeks arrangements are 'Plantation' style.
