Five Ways to Wear Prints

style

Prints make a statement and look fabulous on but knowing what to wear with a print and how to mix the season’s hottest prints together can be challenging.  This season rock the Geometric Prints, Aztec Prints, Floral Prints, Tie-Dye, and Watercolor Prints to be on trend.  The key in wearing prints is looking at the size of the print and how that best showcases your figure.  Larger prints are more distracting and bold versus smaller prints.  When intermixing prints pair a larger print with a smaller print to create a contrast or dimension in your look.  An example might be larger stripes with smaller polka dots.

Geometric Prints

Look for bold color combinations in this print.  Black and white or navy and white are fresh, crisp, and easily wearable.  Geometric prints look current when worn on the bottom in pants, shorts, or a skirt paired with solids or a contrasting print.  Shift dresses and wrap dresses take this style to the office for an updated look.
