Rules For Wearing Prints

There are a few thumb rules when wearing prints that you should really stick to:

  • One Print at a time-Prints stand out a lot, so it's best to keep the rest of your look simple. If you decide to go for a printed tee, keep your bottoms to one color… preferably a color that is already in the print.
  • Start with Accessories-A good place to start experimenting with prints is with bags and shoes. An animal print shoe is a sure way to make your whole outfit stand out.
  • Animal Prints-it’s always best to stick to black for the rest of the outfit. So if you’re wearing an animal print dress, stick to black shoes and a black bag.
  • Keep It Classy -This should come as no surprise, but please don’t wear more than one print at once. Don’t combine an animal print top with a tribal print skirt – it will look trashy rather than classy. So just pick one print and leave the rest simple.
  • Fitted Prints- Fabrics that are closer to the body, especially in print, look a lot more put together rather than larger, billowy prints which could actually make you larger than you are.
  • Big Prints and Little Prints- Big prints make you look bigger and if you’ve already got a fuller figure, I advise you to stay away from there! Instead, opt for smaller prints which will be much more forgiving!

Fashion Tips

 Know your proportions! 


Skinny bottom half? Wear a full top over narrow pants


Short waisted? Wear a long top and short skirt 


Petite torso? Wear a fitted top with full pants


Long waisted? Pair a short top with long bottoms

Spring Must-Haves!


  • Ruffle Dress- You could throw on with sandals without much thought, but you’ll still look totally cute in it.
  • Skinny Jeans-These will make your legs look super-long!
  • Necklace- love it when it already comes pre-layered! Pair with a simple tee and you’re done!
  • Bracelets- I like to mix different types of bracelets together to create interesting textures and colors with my outfits.
  • Loose Tees- An effortless touch to a pair of skinny's
  • Maxi Dresses- Easy and comfy and will look especially great once the weather warms up!
  • Boho Bracelets- I'm obsessed with bohemian tribal bracelets right now. so cute and look great piled together
