A good way to mix and match prints?

Mixing and matching can definitely be very tricky, but when it is done in the right way it can be such an fun, edgy, and polished.

My golden rule when mixing prints, you need to pick the same color scheme and just stick to that- think back to Missoni with their neutral tones in every collection. I think part of the secret is to play with shades that go together creating a cohesive color palette. You want to create a look that is fun, but does not overpower. If you want to step up the mixing of prints a nadia must do mixing geometric and tribal prints. Also, dots and stripes contrast well together and in time switch it up. My final tip for mixing and matching  is to keep all accessories neutral so you don't take away from the outfit. In terms of beauty, it is important to be subtle - the makeup and hair were intentionally kept light and fresh.
