My Secret Formula To Mix Patterns – Floral and Polka Dots

I love to mix patterns! You can give new life to the pieces you already have in your closet just mix and matching prints. And believe me it's not that hard!

If you have been reading my blog for a while, you already know how much I love to mix patterns. For me, it’s so much fun, plus you can give new life to the pieces you already have in your closet. I have shown you several looks me with mix patterns. You can see a complete guide that I did some time ago HERE.

In today’s look, I show you how to mix two patterns: flowers and dots. The key to making this outfit look super chic is in the proportion of the prints. You have to make sure that they complement each other and do not compete. As you can see, the flowers are much larger and dots super tiny so they look good together. Also, both patterns have a common color: black.

I took the risk and added a bright bold color bag. But that’s me and that totally my style! If you already feel that mixing patterns is enough for your personal style, do worry!! Just use neutral accessories. And voilá!

So tell me, how confident do you feel about trying to mix patterns? Do you feel it is for you or do you prefer to stay neutral?
