It’s probably our chilliest spring in years here in NYC, which raises the question of whether to dress for mid-day sun and heat, or morning/evening cool breezes and shade. A happy medium is a simple look pairing spring floral print jeans with a knit top and a black blazer, allowing you to remove layers and add them again as needed. Le Blog de Betty has always been a great source of layering inspiration, and this floral denim jeans look is now exception. Get this functional and stylish spring look below.

Katy Perry was photographed visiting poverty-stricken children in Madagascar recently as part of a UNICEF initiative. ”In less than one week here in Madagascar, I went from crowded city slums to the most remote villages and my eyes were widely opened by the incredible need for a healthy life—nutrition, sanitation and protection against rape and abuse—which UNICEF are stepping in to help provide,” Perry said in a statement. She wore a pair of Black Orchid Denim’s Black Jewel Tencel Skinny floral jeans in California Raspberry.

Remember Ziggy Denim’s FW12 lookbook, featuring paper bag-clad models and body paint? We just got an up-close look at the collection and fell hard for their wild printed floral denim and intense color palette. Upon closer examination we discovered inconspicuous skeletons dancing between the flowers… spooky!
The super playful brand (with fit names like the “super tight ankle biter”) is making their US debut at a below-$100 price point, which surprised us after we got our hands on how amazing the jeans and chinos feel. Check out some of the spring 2013 womens’ styles below.
Keep your eye on Ziggy Denim!
