Styling Patterns - What is the key to a patterned look?

10/8/2020

Hello beautifuls!

I hope you are all having a great start to the week and are staying safe. Today's look is all about contrast. If you've known me for a while you'll know my favourite styling always includes contrast. When you're determining what pieces to style your main piece with, in this look it's the patterned pants, you look for the least prominent colour and bring that colour out. In this look the least prominent colour is obviously white. Using this colour I have based the rest of the look, pairing it with a simple knitted crop and white runners. As most of the detail is in the pants you can add statement jewellery. If the top was patterned instead of the pants it would appear as if there was too much going on, but because there's a break in the look with the white crop statement jewellery makes the outfit appear more put together.

The key to patterned look? Pair pieces using the least prominent colour in the pattern and separate your statement pieces. These pants honestly favourite new purchase. They're so fun and they make a statement. I can't wait to wear them again. Shop the look and some gorgeous patterned pieces at the bottom of this post.
