Mix and Match for Spring 2013

Mix and Match for Spring 2013

One of the top trends this season apart from black and white stripes are florals and prints. One way that you can wear them and make the trends your own is to mix and match according to your own personal style! The trick is to take some risks with pattern pairing.

Here are some basic tips to ensure you are on the right track:

• When pairing different prints and patterns together aim to have one to two colours that are the same in each item, this way the outfit will appear more cohesive
• Floral, patterned and coloured denim are in for spring in a major way so update your bottoms by wearing them as cut off shorts, cuffed or capri or long and lean!
• Bold florals and prints are always sophisticated when worn with black if you are feeling less adventurous 
• Finally, have fun with it, it's a playful way to update your wardrobe and remain on trend for Spring 2013!
