Mixing & Matching Patterns

When we were younger the rule was to NEVER mix patterns- now that were older and the times have changed, mixing and matching patterns has turned into a surprisingly eye catching and FUN way to play with your wardrobe. Celia had a harder time finding items to mix her outfit with (the idea of mixing patterns is still new to us too) but I think her outfit turned out super cute!



Celia's Outfit: Jacket- Urban Outfitters (bought a while ago), Dress- Forever 21, Shoes- Vince Camuto
Jamie's Outfit: Top- Urban Outfitters (bought a while ago), Skirt- Zara, Shoes- Delicious



You may feel like it's hard to find the right patterns to put together but try to follow these simple rules: after experimenting with it, we think it's easier to mix and match patterns that aren't #1: the exact same and #2: don't wear two types of patterns that fight one another, choose either your top or bottom print to be bolder than the other.


Either way, have fun with it and be adventurous- go mix and match your patterns, you can do it! ;)
