PATTERN MIXING

May 20, 2013

I love anything and everything on trend.
That's why everything in my close has about a 3 month life span.
Good for my appearance, horrible on my bank account.
Sometimes I feel like I thought of something original and then I see it on Fashion Police or in a magazine and spend the rest of the week, wondering who thought of it first.
Clearly I win in my mind every time.

Pattern mixing has been around for a minute now,
 but it has gone beyond pairing stripes and polka dots.
It has come to full on different patterns on top than on bottom.

In honor of Fashion Police, I ask you "Gotta Have It" or "Make It Stop"
I rule GOTTA HAVE IT.

Let's see how to do it right...





TIPS:
*Remember you are mixing PATTERNS not colors, keep the colors cordinating.
*Break it up: add a belt, blazer or handbag.
*Trying mixing different florals.



**FAVORITE LOOK- pair the same pattern on top and on bottom, whether it be a suit, or a silky combo, it is my favorite right now and a must do.
