So what is the best way to mix the newest spring patterns? Are there new rules for the season?
The answer is, there are no rules.
Here are some fun and flirty ways to wear the newest styles from TJ Maxx, the one-stop shop for a fashionista on a budget.
Geometric styles are hot right now and can be seen on everything from jewelry to scarves. For everyday wear, try mixing a small geometric pattern with a larger one in the same color family. They will work well together without clashing.
The nautical look will be all the rage this spring. Nautical stripes and navy blue go perfect together for a preppy daytime outfit. Keeping the shoes neutral will help tie the whole look together.
For those special events, ditch the boring black pantsuits and try out a new pattern.
A pencil skirt gives the perfect silhouette to flatter all curves. Pairing a soft, flirty blouse with a curve-hugging skirt eludes sex appeal while also keeping a touch of class.
Mixing patterns can be overwhelming if done wrong, but when done correctly, it can be tasteful. Keep in mind that when mixing patterns to keep the colors of each pattern in the same palette.
Lastly, remember to always wear your confidence with every outfit. Confidence is the real key to a successful ensemble.
