The How

If mixing prints brings a vivid image of fashion throwing up on you (if fashion was a person) never fear! We’ve got you covered.

Step One: Choose two contrasting prints. An easy pairing choice is florals and stripes. We’d also recommend stripes with more stripes!

Step Two: Be sure to choose prints that are in the same color palette. You can see that A’s top doesn’t include any yellow but it’s the same tone as those fierce striped pants.

Step Three: Bring all of your confidence and rock those prints! We’re talking confindence level Demi Lavato. What’s wrong with being confident?! Absolutely nothing. So go on and run your show.

The Execution

A killed the game! Florals and stripes in the same OOTD. She chose a striped mustard yellow bottom with a navy floral top. A secret tip! Her pants were actually a jumpsuit. This is an easy way to get that high waisted look while mixing some prints.

If you're still feeling more like a circus clown than a fashionista beckon the aid of your best gal to tell you how fab you look! We might have even taken a stroll through our local Target after this shoot because we were feeling the prints so much.

Playing it Safe

We totally get that going outside your circle of comfort can be tricky. If the mixed prints are just too much to wrap your head around start with one print like S did. Mixing different fabrics can be a way to add something special to your one print outfit. Like the oversized denim jacket S is rocking.
