Mixing Print and Pattern

HOW TO MIX PRINTS PART 1

Mixing prints can look amazing if done right. Ever tried to do this and given up?
Here are the rules (bearing in mind that rules are made to be broken!).

Rule 1: Match at least one colour

In the example above, I have matched the blue in the top and skirt.
​
The rule says to match at least one colour, but I like to match two, or even three, for a really eye-catching outfit. 

Note that the handbag has the cobalt blue of the top and skirt, but also the blush pink and white, which ties the whole outfit together very well.

TIP: florals and stripes almost always make for a good yin-yang match
