Favorite Trends: Sequins & Florals

At Petalume, we’re always drawn to the dance between nostalgia and modernity—the romance of florals, the elegance of light, and the quiet, poetic story told through design. This season, one pairing has captured our hearts in a particularly enchanting way: sequins and florals.

Like light filtering through stained glass, this trend feels sacred, magical, and wholly feminine.

The Poetry of Petals

Floral prints have long been one of our favorite expressions of beauty and connection to nature. There's something deeply grounding about blossoms—whether pressed into a phone case or scattered across a sundress. They remind us of Eden, of seasons turning, of growth and grace.

In our Petalume collection, moody botanicals bloom across every case like pages from a romantic novel. From soft ivory florals outlined in vintage sketches to lush garden scenes in rich, painterly hues, each one invites you to slow down and delight in detail.

The Light of Sequins

Then there’s sequins—the sparkle that says, "I was made to shine." They're bold in the gentlest way. When paired with florals, sequins feel less party and more poetry—like stardust scattered across a meadow at golden hour.

Think soft gold skirts paired with a simple blouse and a floral bag, or a beaded ballet flat peeking out beneath a rose-printed dress. It’s a combination that whispers celebration while keeping both feet firmly planted in elegance.

And isn’t that what we’re all craving? A little shimmer in the ordinary. A reminder that light still dances, even on quiet days.

Why It Speaks to Us

At Petalume, we believe getting dressed is more than utility—it’s a ritual. A form of art. A way of expressing what we find lovely and true. Sequins and florals together feel like the best kind of contradiction: soft and strong, humble and radiant.

They echo the Psalms—how joy and lament can live side by side, how beauty isn’t always loud, but it's always present. Whether you're slipping on a sparkling skirt for Sunday service or tucking your phone into a floral clutch, you’re carrying a bit of delight with you.

Make It Yours

Pair a moody floral phone case from our collection with a gilded manicure. Style a sequin top with wide-leg denim and a bouquet in your tote. Or simply let one petal-covered accessory brighten your every day.
