Each year, Macy’s hosts a Flower Show at several of their flagship stores around the country. Gorgeous flowers, arranged in thematic settings…so beautiful, so fresh! It’s a gorgeous celebration of spring, and I love seeing what they come up with every year! This year’s theme was America the Beautiful, and every garden was set up to capture the spirit and natural beauty of each region of the country…the southeast, east, southwest, west, midwest and pacific northwest. I was so inspired by the Flower Show that I just had to do a photo shoot — even though the lighting was set up to highlight the flowers and (gasp!) not fashion bloggers attempting to steal the spotlight.

The three looks that I chose worked well with the gardens from the southeast, southwest and Rockies region.

First, the southeast, which is an environment I’m very familiar with, since I’m from Alabama! I chose a mint color, two tone sleeveless sheath dress from Calvin Klein to evoke the charm and refinement that characterizes southern fashion.

Next, I completely fell in love with this off-the-shoulder ruffled royal blue dress. I had a vision that it would perfectly match the southwest landscape and couldn’t help but add a flower headress!

And for my third dress, I went with a more sleek silhouette with a mod, colorblocked design that evoked the scenery of the Rockies to me.
