I'm back at KATU's Afternoon Live to share my tips for print-mixing! This seems like a bit of an overwhelming topic to a lot of people. I know plenty of folks who would never dream of mixing prints. It's okay if it just isn't your style, but if it is something you want to try, I'm here to help!
Click through to watch my video segment, get the written tips (along with outfit examples), and check out a few other bloggers who are mixing prints like pros!

3 - Stripes are generally considered a neutral when mixing prints.
4 - Pair the same print in different color schemes (like inverted colors) or different size scales.
5 - Pair a more monochrome print with a multicolor print.
