Amanda’s Style File: Beautiful Blooms
These jewels are inspired by the floral-filled press tour for “It Ends With Us,” which hits theaters Aug. 9.

Despite that timeless appeal, spring and summer are standouts for this style.
Even during a typical year, it would be natural to have flowers featured as a standout style for the month of August.
However, this is not an ordinary August, as there is Hollywood magic behind what is sure to bring flower mania.
“It Ends With Us,” a film adapted from the bestselling novel by Colleen Hoover, is hitting the big screen this weekend.
While the movie isn’t really about flowers, they are still front and center in the film. The story's main character, Lily Bloom, played by the lovely Blake Lively, dreams of opening her own flower shop.
This Style File celebrates our favorite kind of flowers – the jewel kind.
