This month’s blogger challenge from Everybody Everywear is mixed patterns. And I must say this one was a do-sey! I really wasn’t sure how to match patterns – this is not a common combination that I would come up with while remixing. But I love a challenge and I think I did quite well. I have been thinking about wearing this shirt with my red pencil skirt, and then I thought – well, why the heck not with my red POLKA DOT dress?! Match complete. Did anyone else participate in the EBEW challenge today? Leave me your links and I’ll check yours out J Enjoy!
Mixed Patterns: Polka dot + Gingham + Leopard
Le Chateau dress + wedges, Old Navy button-up,
Coach wristlet, Guess watch, J. Crew necklace
Xxxo,

They're both such strong prints but they mix together so well! It definitely helps that the colours are perfect together :)

This looks FANTASTIC!! Absolutely love it! I bought this shirt a few weeks ago and have been waiting and waiting (until I am finally done with the 30x30 remix) to bust it out with some other goodies from my closet. I love it with the red!
ReplyDeleteI definitely like this mix! the prints pair well and the color contrast is wonderful!

Oh my gosh!!!! LOVE this whole outfit! You did a fantastic job with EBEW. I didn't participate this go around, but I have loved seeing everyone's pattern mixing :)
ReplyDeleteHeather
LOVE the combo... but not with black shoes. How about a plain purselet and flowered shoes in the same tones? Or just metallic?
ReplyDelete@Pieter, thanks! I <3 it too :)
ReplyDelete@Lucinda, aww thanks girl. I definitely will check it out :)
@Henar, thanks! Glad you do :)
@kimbercrafts, thanks girl - totally agree.
@Inez, hahaha didn't think of it as color blocking but I guess you're right! :)
@Meagan, thanks! I'm very pleased with the outcome too :)
@Style Journey, thanks girl! I know, its so fun to see how everyone can take the same idea but come up with so many unique ones :) loves it
@anon4:03, thanks - well.....I don't have a plain pursette or shoes like you describe so the black ones have to do for now :P
