Sustainable Fashion and Beauty Tips For Women

Happy Valentine's Day!!! Girls have you received beautiful flowers from your lovers or your friends? What varieties of flowers do they give you and what languages are included? Maybe they express their deep love or make a confession to you by these sweet-smelling flowers. In order to understand all about this, you can find all the answers here: How To Send The Right Romantic Message In Valentine's Day

Since ancient times, flowers have been a tool for the men to express their love to their lovers, today I want to take this opportunity to talk about something related to flowers: floral prints.

Floral element is quite popular and common in fashion designing. However, do you know how to distinguish different kinds of floral in various clothing?

In many people's minds, there are not many differences among floral patterns. Actually, they look similar at first sight. But I need to clarify there are 5 major floral patterns in the garment industry.







Since we already have a simple definition of floral prints, now let's talk about some different floral dress. I divide them into two major categories: The European style and Japanese style.

Firstly, please take a look of this European style dress.

I think this pattern is hard for Asian to handle, except the tall and thin European Girls. Since the skin tone of Asian people is deep and yellow, wearing this dark-colored floral outfit can easily make the skin color dull for Asian Girls.

Secondly, the dense floral pattern. To be honest, it strikes me that this regular and dense floral pattern are so vulgar, filled with a bad taste of fashion sense.

Actually, compared to Japanese floral prints, the European floral pattern is not complicated. Basically, most of the dresses are in white or black. I prefer the black one since it's easy-matching and easier for people to handle than the dress in white, for example↓

Now, let us focus on the Japanese style. Take this dress as an example. We can see this dress includes plenty of white space and its flowers are small, which is more like a plain one visually. In my opinion, I believe the merits of this floral pattern can capture the interest of others and lose sight of our imperfect figure. However, since it has a large blank space, it will probably make you bloated.

On the contrary, these two dresses have thick flowers and because of these showy floral prints, it does play a good decorative effect in the whole look. It's really a good choice for the rectangle-shaped girls who want to try some light-colored dress.


At last, let's discuss these two bright-colored spaghetti strap summer dress.


In fact, this kind of style is pretty suitable for the photo shoot, which looks cute and energetic. Of course, dark-colored items are more suitable for winter, while the light-colored items are fit for summer.

With all the talk of floral dresses, do you have a desire for trying them?

Two weeks ago, my friend Joean asked me a question, she said:" I want to buy some clothes for my grandparents that fit for their age and keep them happy when wearing them. However, I don't know what to buy and how to choose them."

In fact, there are lots of changes in physiology and psychology when people are middle-aged. Therefore, people over 50 have their own certain aesthetic requirements in dressing. We all know pursuing beauty not only belongs to the young, but also to the old. But how to choose clothes for elders? If you want to be more trendy yet decent, you have to know some fashion tips below.

1. Avoid contrast colors or complementary colors.
2. Free your mind. Select floral print, small dots or implicit stripes bravely.
3. Choose the proper costume colors based on your skin tone.

1. Clothing style should be simple and plain.



2. Dark-colored or solid-colored clothes well fit the huge old men or women. Generally, females are not suitable for wearing the vivid colors and the exaggerating design, such as sparkles, sequins.

3. At a formal occasion, it's necessary for the old to choose clothes in a sober and sedate tone, embellishing with little bright-colored elements.

4. At an informal occasion, the old can choose bright-colored or print garments.

1. Senior women should choose the simple, generous and elegant design to manifest their tenderness and unique aura.

2. Because the old are weaker than the young, so when they select the daily outfits, they ought to be loose-fitting, cozy, comfortable and soft, which is good for the stretch. So I believe the cotton/wool oversized cardigan is better than the pullovers.

1. Generally speaking, the fabric is supposed to be soft, light and highly breathable. Hence, I recommend the elder people choose purified cotton, wool, silk, natural cotton linen or flax clothing. (To know the detailed advantages of these fabrics, especially linen clothes, you can check Why Cotton Linen Is Must-have For You )

2. Light-colored costumes, such as white, light blue, light green, light pink tend to be younger. On the contrary, dark colors are more solemn.

1. The apple-shaped people: Choose plain loose-fitting clothes but not the plus size one cause it can undoubtedly show your big fat belly and make you look fatter.

2. The lean column: stripes or printing pattern can be your first choices.

In a word, I think all of the grandparents will love the clothes that the grandchildren buy for them

The iconic flower is also known for being pricey—according to Michael Gaffney, Director of the New York School of Flower Design, "flower growers hold back their rose bushes for months in order to have them bloom in time for February 14th—and then they raise the prices, giving roses that sought-after reputation." However, it's still the first choice for Valentine's gift.

The Gerbera variety, recognizable by their large flowering heads, is available in an assortment of peppy hues, which gives them the additional meaning of cheerfulness. Therefore, these happy buds are always a favorite to receive.

They convey comfort and warmth and are a good Valentine's Day pick because they're classic, affordable and dazzling.


In Chinese tradition, lilies have the wonderful meaning of eternal love, a happy family and independence, which are the blessing flowers. These white Oriental lilies typically stand for "beauty, class, and style," says Gaffney. "A man who creates a bouquet of these dramatic and expensive lilies is sophisticated and knows his partner well." And, notes Law, people love these stunning blooms' heady fragrance, so they are one of the home –popular flowers as well.

According to Gaffney, these rare flowers represent love, beauty, luxury, and strength. Plus, they send the message of exotic seduction. "If someone gives you orchids, they're a little wilder than the person who goes for a dozen roses." Since orchids a hold up well over time, people like to use them to decorate some special places, both in bouquets or living room.

Carnations are the best gift to express love to our mother. These ruffled blooms are also well known for fascination and new love. Carnations are dignified, fragrant, tranquil and graceful, as our gentle mothers. So it also has a nickname of “ Mother Flowers.”

As the sun they're named for, these blossoms are the symbol of warmth and happiness, they also stand for loyalty, according to Gaffney.

British always treats lavenders as a token of peace, purity, gratitude and freshness. In fact, they imply a right attitude towards life. It’s said that if you put equal handfuls of dried lavender flowers into a cotton pillowcase, and seal the end, it can help you to find your dream lovers.

Venus, the goddess of love and beauty, like to collect the dew from hyacinths to make her skin more smooth and beautiful. After flowering, you need to cut off the dying flowers for next florescence. Therefore, hyacinths also represent the reborn love. It means forget the past of sadness and begin a new life.

Gardenias begin to breed the flower buds from winter and burst into bloom in summer. Loaded with fragrance, these elegant flowers signify purity and joy, and connote deep, old-fashioned love, says Gaffney. "The man who buys these likely has a history with the woman he's buying them for." Because they're expensive and are sold as single blooms, they'll definitely make a statement on the holiday or some special occasion.

One of my favorite blooms ever, which is memorized for their romantic flowers language- the true love and forever love. People think that if you keep forget-me-not with you, your lover will love you forever until death do you part.
