Street style ways to mix match patterns

There are so many awesome street style ways to mix and match patterns! To be honest, mixing and matching seems to be the new norm. Don't be afraid to experiment with different colors - all you'll be doing is looking like a serious fashionista! Check out some of my favorite ways to mix and match patterns. If you have outfit ideas/tips, share them in the comments section. 

1. FLORAL PRINT

In my opinion, you can never go wrong with floral. A floral top/skirt can be used as a solo statement piece for your outfit, but why not match it with another one? Pair different floral patterns and you'll be surprised at just how good it looks together. This is just one of the cool street style ways to mix and match patterns!

2. LACE

For a totally cute look, pair oversized pieces (like sweater dresses) with alluring lace. It's a trend I've been meaning to try for a while and will definitely get around to this spring/summer! Mixing and matching lace with different types of fabrics is such a cute look.

3. PRINT + POLKA DOTS

Polka dots are so adorable to wear in the spring/summer. It's already quite a statement piece but that doesn't mean you shouldn't pair it with another fun print. If you're rocking a polka-dot top, pair it with printed pants. Or, if you're choosing polka-dot pants, pair it with a printed top! Either way, you'll be making an awesome fashion statement wherever you go.

4. PRINT + STRIPES

I've seen this look a few times and I think it's great. Stripes tend to be people's go-to pattern but it's usually just paired with basic jeans/shorts. This time, pair it with ANOTHER pattern. Perhaps a maxi skirt? If the colors look good together, the mixing and matching of patterns will work!

5. MAD FOR PLAID

A lot of people find the plaid pattern to be a bit 'overwhelming'. I, for one, love it! You can either rock plaid on plaid, which looks awesome. Or, pair your plaid pants/skirt/top with a different patterned counter piece. Remember, you can mix and match patterns so long as the colors complement each other!

6. PASTELS

This season, it's all about sweet pastel colors. It's a soft, feminine touch to any outfit. Don't be afraid to mix the different colors - such as a baby pink and mint green. The two match fabulously together. You can also try matching different pastel colors such as lavender and teal. Experiment with your favorite colors and you'll have no problem finding a cute outfit!

7. DENIM ON DENIM

Some people tend to stray away from the whole denim-on-denim look, but I think it's awesome! It might sound like a little 'too much' but believe me, it works. If you love making a fashion statement, try mixing and matching different types of denim. It could be different washes or styles and it'll still look fab. My favorite is pairing denim cut offs with a chambray shirt. 

Well, there you have it. These are just seven out of many awesome street style ways that you can mix and match patterns! Granted, there are countless patterns/colors you can experiment with and look fab - these are just some ideas. How do you like to mix and match patterns? Of the list, which look is your favorite?

How to wear collared shirts

There are so many fantastic ways to wear a collared shirt. I think they add an instant "cool and sophisticated" vibe to any outfit. The cool thing about collared shirts is that you can layer it under other shirts while still keeping your outfit light and airy. Check out some of the cool ways to wear a collared shirt and then let me know which looks your favorites are! 

1. WITH LEATHER

You can never go wrong with leather, right? I think it'll always be a big fashion trend. Go traditional with a black + white outfit and rock a white collared shirt with some leather leggings or shorts. This is just one of the ways to wear a collared shirt!

2. KEEP IT NEUTRAL

As much as I love a good pop of color, I love neutral-colored outfits. To recreate this look, get a white collared shirt and layer it under a neutral-colored (like beige) blouse. Then, wear it with a white high-waisted skirt. The colors are very subtle and will keep you looking cute during spring!

3. PREPPY CHIC

If you're going for a Taylor Swift-esque vibe, the preppy chic way is the way to go. Collared shirts just scream out preppy. Am I right, ladies?! Try a basic white polo and pair it with a pretty pastel color - I'm loving pink! By adding white shoes and a white clutch, it gives the outfit an instant girly feel. It's perfect for running errands, grabbing lunch with your gal pals, or just taking a stroll in warm spring weather.

4. FUN PATTERNS

As much as I love solid-colored button ups, I adore the ones with funky prints on them. I think it's a bold way to make a fashion statement at any time. Since it is such a statement piece, keep everything else really basic. Try a denim skater skirt, it's very stylish. Also, try and keep the accessories to a minimum.

5. WITH HIGH-WAISTED JEANS

I'm obsessed with the whole high-waisted look. Whether it be high-waisted shorts, skirts, or jeans, it's a fabulous look to rock. If you're going to wear some high-waisted jeans, pair it with a collared button-up shirt. Try out a fun print as It's very hipster-chic.

6. WITH A CREW NECK SWEATER

Crew neck sweaters have become a must-have in my closet. They're stylish without having the bulge of a hoodie. A cool way to rock a collared shirt is to wear it underneath your crew neck sweater! I like the idea of going all black - black skinnies and black collared shirt. Then, pick a fun color/graphic sweater to wear on top. It'll contrast really nicely and give you some major style points.

7. CHAMBRAY

I'm a huge fan of chambray shirts. I think they are breezy, stylish, and look great with everything. I'll usually mine with black skinnies and combat boots; it's become my go-to outfit! However, I think it's awesome when people pair chambray shirts with jeans. The whole denim-on-denim look is actually a huge trend at the moment. The cut-off shoulders chambrays usually have a really fun print on the collar! 

Well, there you have it! These are just seven out of many cool ways to wear a collared shirt. How do you like to style your collared shirts? Let's share outfit ideas/tips in the comments section! Which look will you be recreating?
