Are you ready for the new spring fashions? I sure am. I love the soft pastels of spring, they will be a fresh way to dress this spring...however I would never mix patterns of the same size (like pictured above). Would you? How do you successfully mix patterns? For me, I always let one print be big & bold, while the other compliments. I also make sure the prints have the same color palette. What are your tricks for pattern mixing?
I wouldn't mix prints like that unless I dressed in my sleep. It looks like she knicked her legs while shaving to me. LOL I don't think I'm tall enough to mix patterns. They would be too concentrated on my 5'1" frame. My favorite warm weather wear is an a-line skirt with a small flowered pattern, a solid color fitted T (v-necked of course), with sandals. I like to wear my prints on the bottom because I am smaller on the bottom than the top. I'm going to the mall tomorrow to see what kind of sandals I can find before my size gets sold out!
ReplyDeleteAs a petite...keep it simple. Too much of anything will overwhelm you.
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of dressing bold and seeing unique ways of wearing spring styles...but you know what it is that just bugs me? In this picture, the scale of the 2 patterns are the same...I hate that! One pattern must dominate and be bolder. Maybe I'm just "old school" here...
