When Sugarlips sent these shorts over for me to style, my goal was to avoid pairing them with a solid black or white top because it seemed too easy. I reached for this polka dot blouse instead, which still acts as a neutral base to the colourful shorts but adds more interest with the mixing of prints. I did have a moment of doubt after putting this combination together, so I posted a photo on Instagram to get some feedback and make sure I wasn't going crazy in the styling department. A lot of you liked it and said the print mixing worked, which made me feel better. Thanks for the vote of confidence, dear readers!

Hi Marisa! I saw those shorts on Sugarlips and almost purchased them but I wasn't sure how it'd look on....hmmmm, now you're making me want to purchase them :) You look super pretty here, I love the pop of color from your flats and the print mixing looks great. Can I tell you something? You kind of remind me of Anh of 9to5Chic who I think is gorgeous and fab. :)
ReplyDeleteBest comment ever, KT! I'm flattered that I remind you of Anh, that's truly a compliment :) xo
DeleteI love the way you mixed these patterns and your shoes are super cute!
