I am a GIRL OF PRINTS and that’s my story……

Over the years, prints have become my obsession. Honestly, I have no idea when and how, but mixing prints now comes instinctively to me. I have had people compliment me on my print-mixing abilities and I gladly do and will accept it every time.

Okay now enough blowing my own trumpet, let’s get to the business of today’s post- “‘ how to wear prints like a pro?” Well, there is no rule of thumb: a little trial and error is the way to go, that’s how I learnt. Just a few simple tricks up your sleeves, and you could be printastic.

coat- H&M ( shorter version )

blouse- NY&Co ( totally digging this one )

skirt- Banana Republic ( another option from BR )

heels- c/o AmiClubwear ( similar )

BLUE AND BLACK NEVER FAIL– this is the color combination you should be trying when mixing prints, you’ll never go wrong. This combination is always eye-appealing. Black plays the neutral in which case, thereby giving blue some centerstage.

ALWAYS KEEP PROPORTIONS– when one print is louder, sober it down with another print that is less prominent. For instance, my skirt has a bold print, so I choose stripes – the king of all prints, for my top.

KEEP YOUR ACCESSORIES BASIC– in a print-heavy look, your clothing should be the focal point, not your accessories. Refrain from wearing accessories that are overbearing. A simple chain necklace or a pair of earrings as in my case would be fail-proof choice.

So go forth, and have some fun with your prints.. and if you ever get stuck—-” I’m always there !!! “
