Pattern Play

Most women are tentative when it comes to adding pattern into their wardrobes.  There are so many prints and colours to choose from, that it can definitely become overwhelming or headache-inducing (especially if there are too many patterns mixed together!).  

Tips:
 A great way to slowly introduce pattern is to wear two of the same prints but in different sizes. Try a blouse with a large vertical stripe on it, and then pair it with a smaller pinstriped skirt. 

If you're afraid of going too crazy when mixing prints, try prints that are in similar colour groups. It will look visually less jarring, since there is something in common among the patterns you are wearing.
  
What's the easiest way to mix and match patterns?  Stick to prints in black and white or navy and white. 


Playing with patterns and colours should be fun! Here's some inspiration.

Wonder what I'll mix together today?! With this unpredictable weather - I might be opting for something a little warmer.
