Mixing Prints

IMG_7865

Mixing prints is nothing new, but when it comes to leopard + stripes, I can’t help but get excited. The ease of throwing on stripes and mixing it with a bright or bold print always sounds appealing. The best thing about stripes is that pretty much any pattern looks good with it. Whether you go camo, floral, leopard or polka dot, it’s all good with stripes.

This striped maxi (another version) is a favorite summer staple of mine. I have literally worn it all summer long since it’s perfect for travel, super soft and easy to throw on and go. To mix it up, pair the dress with this bright scarf and these sandals for a casual yet sophisticated look. You really can’t go wrong with a classic piece like this! IMG_7872

    This dress is perfect for summer! You could also throw on a jean jacket and wear it into fall 🙂

    […] When all else fails, start with stripes. A great piece of fashion advice that I heard years ago, was to treat stripes as a neutral. Meaning, don’t be afraid to pair it with leopard, florals, or other geometric prints. This is a great place to start for those who are intimidated by patterns. Over the years, I have found this one to be (almost) fool proof! See more of my take on mixing stripes and other prints here, here and here. […]
