Trending Tuesday: Mixing Prints this Fall..

My outfit that never was for FNO's was all about this amazing fall trend. It can be a little tricky to pull off. Here are some tips and tricks to really pull it together the right way..

I found these pictures on Pinterest from other great blogs. I follow them all on Pinterest and on my blog. Be sure you follow these lovely ladies too!

All about picking one big print and layer from there. - This needs to be your WOW! piece.  Let's say a leopard print or a large geometric or floral pattern

 


Mix in a more subtle pattern or texture - think stripes, small plaid, dots, lace, tweed, houndstooth. Think of these are your neutrals.

 


One of the most important rules is to stick with a theme or pallet. Think Nautical or Spring Time Florals or All Dots or a Color (see above picture for a great example)

 

Stripes and Dots are the 101 of mixing patterns 


Mixing in patterns with your accessories. Add a scarf, bag, a pair of fun patterned heals or ballet flats.
