Mixing prints is not an exact science. I suggest starting with one piece then building off of there. I was attracted to this bodysuit from the moment I laid eyes on it. I love demonstrating how sheer doesn’t have to be racy and the floral design definitely adds a ladylike touch. With the holiday season in mind, textured or colored bottoms are a must. I chose the latter!

It is very important to break up the contrasting prints that you are wearing. You do not want to wear a chevron top and a plaid bottom. Instead, separate the patterns with a solid item in between. These burgundy flare pants are the barrier between the floral and leopard print patterns, and I love how they accentuate the rose petals.

If you are a mixed prints newbie, I do not blame you for feeling overwhelmed. Remember this: leopard print is a neutral! As far as I am concerned, black or tan accents are interchangeable with black and tan animal print. In the featured look these leopard booties elevate the ensemble from fair to funky.
