How to: Wear Florals and Stripes

March 18, 2013

Must declare: I love mixing patterns! It totally beefs up the size and wearability of my wardrobe because of the oh so many more combos you can create. Currently adore a camo jacket + any striped shirt, but another favorite — and already classic — pattern mix pairings is floral and stripes. With florals being so fresh each spring, and because stripes are fun and classic, don’t be shy about pairing. Are these girls featured below instant inspiration or what? From floral scarf accents to bold color and pattern mixing in ways that totally work yet are equally unexpected,  these 12 ladies show you how it’s done! Nervous? Try a cute maxi or tee like these that do the mixing for you, or work a pair of adorable floral flats (obsessed with these and these) with a cute striped tee and jeans to get the mixing party started.

    I love the print mix, and I love how it can be done quite boldly, or more subtly, and always looks great!
