Gingham + Leopard = Perfection

I think what makes a style unique is the fact that you can incorporate different colors and prints into your wardrobe. I recently have been on a hunt for this specific pattern called Gingham. Gingham is a checkered style box look that has been trending since last year according to Vogue Magazine. I personally love Gingham as I think it's a perfect mix between Country Chic and Vintage. I've been on the hunt to get more Gingham prints since I only have a button down shirt. I've worn this short button down several times as it's become one of my favorite pieces. This outfit in particular is a perfect example of mixing prints. I paired Gingham with leopard print and although that might sound like it wouldn't go well together. I have pictures to prove it.

Details of outfit: Gingham button down(H&M), cognac Skirt (Thrifted), Leopard print shoes (Chinese Laundry) paired with accessories of which was purchased at Macy's.

Helpful tips in mixing prints. 1. Go with picking out similar colors. Find a focal point within the pattern to help guide you. 2. Pick complementary colors or patterns that suit you. 3. Don't be afraid to experiment and see what works. You'll never know till you try it on. 4. Lastly, be CONFIDENT! It's your style and no one can tell you how to dress.
