Print Mixing: Some Basic Tips

Subtle or bold, give print mixing a try with these tips

• Mix prints based on scale. If you do a larger print on top pair it with a smaller scaled print on the bottom
• Give pattern mixing a subdued effort by mixing a subtle stripe or other print with a bold print to give your look the right amount of contrast
• Feeling brave? Floral on floral can be a bold and stylish statement if done correctly based on the color and scale of the prints you're working with
• Finding a common color among your patterns is a great way to tie the two otherwise varying prints into one great look
• Pattern mixing can even be achieved in a chic way with smaller details such as your accessories. A leopard print belt or bag set against a navy and white polka dot top would be a great way to ease you into becoming the mix master you wanna be!

With all these lush floral and pastel prints coming out for spring, pattern mixing is something every girl should try at least once. Will you give it a try this season?
