I am joining in with Mix and Match day over at Everybody Everywear which means incorporating pattern mixing in to today's outfit. I have always been a bit matchy matchy in my approach to styling but since I have been on my year long shopping ban and creating a new outfit every day I have come to take greater risks and have been venturing into the world of pattern mixing. I have found that stripes tend to go with many other patterns and so far they have featured a few times. I am pretty keen to try out some other looks and I should really feature tartan at some point particularly as it is my national dress. I believe the key to pattern clashing is to choose a common accent colour, as I have with navy, and mix very different types of patterns such as florals and geometrics.
I am looking forward to seeing how everyone else wore the look and if they followed these 'rules' but you know what they say rules are made to be broken.
Hi Lori! Thank you for stopping by Bravoe Runway! I can certainly understand getting writer's block from blogging but you are doing a fantastic job! I just perused through some of your older posts and you are working that closet!!! Love your take on the EBEW challenge, you did a fantastic job mixing prints! I am definitely your newest fan and hope you'll follow back as well!
ReplyDeleteI think you did a great job with this. I really like the pattern of the skirt and the striped top looks great with it!
