I love mixing prints, but I questioned mixing three prints, especially for work. I thought the pattern mix might be too much, but in the end, I decided to go for it. Both the prints and the color palette are relatively simple which prevents the look from going over-the-top, in my opinion.

Love this look! I think you are totally right, the color palette is perfect for pattern mixing. Nice job! :)
ReplyDeleteOh I love how you mixed the prints here, I really like how you mixed black and white prints together, they look great together. But yeah I am like you, I love mixing black and white with a pop of color and the cobalt jacket just pulls the whole outfit together. Those tights are super cute!

It took me a while to see the difference between the Work and Play versions of this outfit, but I figured it out- it is a change in jackets. Anyhow, this is a pretty cool look to me. I'm not crazy over the tights, but they are nice to go with the booties. The ring with the eye design freaks me out somewhat. The outfit in general is very good in my view.

Beautiful outfit! I love the colour of that jacket!
ReplyDeleteXOXO!
I have never personally been able to mix more than 2 prints without feeling like I'm turning into a circus. Yet I see others do it successfully (like this outfit) all the time.
ReplyDeleteReally cool! I love the bright color of your jacket, it really makes your outfit super fun and fresh :D
ReplyDeleteSee ya!

Thanks Amanda!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Fashion Lover!!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Doctor Tinycat!! I kind of feel the same way about mixing more than two prints, but I just decided to go for it on this day. You probably rock it too - I think it's hard to get past preconceived fashion rules.
ReplyDeleteI love accessories - I get lazy about it sometimes, but I really think they make an outfit.
Being petite and curvy AND working in a conservative office, I don't always feel like I can break out with the fashion as much as I want. Accessories help give more classic or conservative looks more edge or cool factor. :-)
Thank you!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Nina! I'm in "love" with these tights that when they came back out this year, I grabbed another pair as back-up!
ReplyDeleteThanks John! I also changed into more comfy boots though they are basically the same in design.
