Even though summer is on the wane, it's not too late to freshen up your tired wardrobe by adding some silk flowers to your look. You can find plenty of gorgeous flowers to use at your local fabric or craft stores. It's easy to pop the flower heads off the wire stems and apply them to your garment with hand stitches.
