10 Must-Have Spring Prints To Add To Your Wardrobe

While I never rule out prints, regardless of season, I do tend to err on the side of monochromatic in the winter. Spring however is my favourite time to get with the dramatics and break out a great print or two (or three).

And I don’t just mean floral prints guys. I’m talking everything from pineapples to those adorable owl prints to sophisticated graphics.

Prints of all kinds are welcome, especially now that we’re not covering them up with unsightly parkas and heavy boots.

Don’t take our word for it though, spring 2015 runways were rife with literal prints from the likes of Louis Vuitton, Jeremy Scott and Italian label, Au Jour le Jour who’ve made whimsical novelty prints their trademark.

We took the liberty of sourcing some great printed pieces that will give your wardrobe a little more life this season:
