Print Clashing: The Do's and Don'ts


After weaving through various articles and images I've managed to compile together two simple, easy to follow rules that will help in your quest to conquer the supposedly un-conquerable. That is; print clashing- you've either got it or you don't got it and hopefully these rules will ensure that you do got it. 


Rule 1 (PART ONE).



  • I believe the key is to keep one pattern simple: Don't mix a boisterous top with a exuberant pair of pants.




DO- boisterous paired with non-boisterous  






DON'T- Well... you know what they say- a picture says a thousand words




Rule 1 (PART TWO).

  • If you do mix crazy patterns, make sure they are either the same colour palette OR a neutral coloured pattern and a bright coloured pattern. 




DO- same colour and neutral/bright





DON'T





RULE 2

Match a small print with a large print- that way there is not an overdose of either and your outfit will pull off a wonder juxtoposition.

DO-  


DON'T- Not one of Rihanna's finest outfits (and I do love her style)



RULE 3.

Have fun and don't be afraid to experiment- if you want to look like a shamozzle then go for it, no one is here to stop you girlfriend (or boyfriend), especially not me.


DISCLAIMER- These are all my OWN opinions, if you are offended I apologise and you continue to do your thing.
