i wish i was a punk rocker (with flowers in my hair)

Apparently florals are going to be big this spring. For a change.

All cynicism aside, I am a big fan of floral print (as my friends will tell you when they had to prise me off of a pair of floral Dr Martens that I would have spent all of my Christmas money on) - I love the way that it can be grunged up or can be used to accentuate femininity. And I don't just mean for women - in light of reading Tara's article about gender stereotypes (which is well worth a read), I'm going to include some pictures of men rocking the floral trend, because who says that flowers and nature are just for women?

So here's some pictures that should inspire you to follow the floral trend, no matter what your gender is. Because why the fuck should it matter?
