This week Trina and Aracely started a new theme segment on Mamanista Friday. This week the theme was prints/patterns.
I know some people like to stay away from mixing prints but I am a huge fan. I don’t do it often but I try to do a little something when I can. One of the keys to making this trend work is to make sure the prints are in the same color family.
One day this week while out running errands I wore this:
Sweater: Thrifted Blouse:Thrifted Jeans: Thrifted Rainboots: Target Necklace: Target Cuff: Tory Burch
I tell you this weather really has me home bound. I thought I would spice things up by moving from my dining room to the kitchen this time. Change is good. Can’t wait to be able to go outside.
Are you a fan of mixed prints? Have you dared tried the trend? Are you ready for Spring?!

I’ve never mixed prints before. I’ll add it to my list. I honestly find that I don’t wear a lot because I’m scared,lol. And I LOVE the cuff!

February 9, 2014 at 1:24 pmThis looks so cute on you. I always feel weird wearing sweaters because I’m so top heavy with these DDD’s. This color works perfectly though. You’re truly an inspiration! I may take another stab at it!

February 10, 2014 at 12:41 pmI like mixing up prints too and I like prints and stripes together. It’s all about how bold each pattern is and in your case think they can safely go together.

February 10, 2014 at 7:45 pmHi! Stopping in from SITSgirls. I am TERRIBLE at mixing prints and I typically avoid it. I’m a very visual person so I love bloggers who post themselves in their outfits as it helps me piece things in my wardrobe together. You did a great job on this outfit. It looks great and comfortable at the same time.

February 12, 2014 at 1:03 pmNew fan here from SITS – you had me at “thrifted” 🙂 I love mix and matching. Right now I’m wearing black and white polka capri leggings and black and white Ikat top! Don’t even get me started on accent nails! I don’t even think I could wear a straight mani LOL
