Clashing Florals with Stripes
This trend was seen last summer too so it`s no surprise it has made a stylish return. Florals and stripes are both key summer prints so putting them together was a no-brainer for the fashion elite. The a-listers have showed us how it`s done so if you`re after an effortless high-summer look then take note. Model Karolina Kurkova sported a stripe tee and skinny floral trousers whilst actress Reese Witherspoon was seen in a stripe top and floral skirt combo for relaxed daytime dressing. Go for a smarter option if you want to flaunt this fashionable trend at the office like Heidi Klum who looked amazing in a stripe top, bold floral pencil skirt and heels.
Most women have probably got both components in their wardrobe already so now it`s just a case of teaming them together. Easy peasy! A stripe and floral mash-up is an effective way to introduce colour and dimension to looks. Don`t shy away from bold blooms or colourful pieces as it`s these aspects that could make or break an outfit. There are so many variations of this cool print pairing you`ll be smitten with the different combinations you can put together. Mixing and matching garments has never been so fun!
