At first, combining prints seems to be too much effort and nearly a fashion faux-pas. But it’s neither, TRUST.

The key to (easily) achieving that eclectic, vibrantly-cool look, is working with subtlety and coordinating colors.

A few side notes:

• When mixing florals, try combining small patterns with over-sized ones.
• Don’t be afraid to venture with other elements like lace, and go-with a fun print like owls or birds.
• Keep your outfit to a maximum of two printed items. For example: If you’re wearing a tie-dye scarf, don’t wear patterned shorts and a floral top – choose one or the other. Too much is always TOO MUCH… and less is more, even with pattern play .

Frockfully Yours,
