    \n
  1. Start with a neutral base: Begin with a neutral color like black, white, beige, or grey. This will give you a foundation to work with and help prevent your outfit from looking too busy or overwhelming.<\/li>\n
  2. Stick to a color scheme: Choose a color scheme that includes 2-3 colors. This will help guide your choices and ensure that your prints and patterns complement each other rather than clash.<\/li>\n
  3. Use different scales and sizes: Mix prints and patterns of different scales and sizes to create visual interest. For example, pair a small polka dot pattern with a larger floral pattern.<\/li>\n
  4. Mix patterns from different categories: Don’t be afraid to mix different types of patterns such as stripes, florals, polka dots, and animal prints. However, make sure that they have a common color scheme to tie them together.<\/li>\n
  5. Add solid colors as a buffer: Incorporate solid colors into your outfit to give your eyes a break from the busy patterns. You can use these colors in accessories like shoes, belts, and bags.<\/li>\n
  6. Use accessories to tie the look together: Accessories like jewelry, scarves, and hats can help tie your outfit together. For example, you could wear a scarf that includes all the colors in your outfit or choose jewelry that complements your patterns.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    By following these basic guidelines, you can create a stylish and cohesive look when mixing and matching prints and patterns. Remember to experiment and have fun with your outfits, and don’t be afraid to step out of your comfort zone!<\/p>\n

    Techniques for Mixing and Matching Prints and Patterns<\/h2>\n

    Once you have mastered the basic guidelines for mixing and matching prints and patterns, you can start experimenting with different techniques to take your outfit to the next level. Here are some techniques to try:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Pattern on pattern: This involves pairing two different patterns that share a similar color scheme. For example, you could pair a polka dot top with a striped skirt. To make the look cohesive, make sure the patterns are different sizes.<\/li>\n
    2. Print on print: This technique involves wearing the same print in different sizes or colors. For example, you could wear a black and white striped shirt with black and white striped pants. To make this look work, make sure that the prints are not too busy and that they share a similar color scheme.<\/li>\n
    3. Mixing prints with textures: Another way to mix prints and patterns is by pairing them with different textures. For example, you could pair a floral top with a tweed skirt. This will create a visually interesting outfit that incorporates both prints and textures.<\/li>\n
    4. Using a focal point print: Choose one statement print as the focal point of your outfit, and pair it with more subdued prints or solid colors. For example, you could wear a bold floral print skirt with a simple white t-shirt and solid-colored blazer.<\/li>\n
    5. Gradually building up prints and patterns: If you’re new to mixing and matching prints, start with a small amount and gradually build up from there. For example, you could start with a patterned scarf, then add a printed top, and finally incorporate patterned pants or a skirt.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      By trying out these different techniques, you can create a unique and stylish outfit that incorporates prints and patterns in a creative way. Remember to have fun and experiment with different combinations to find what works best for you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
