Spotted Moth top (gift from my in-laws), H&M pants, Target cardigan, earrings from JCPenney |
Surprisingly, this prompt was by far the hardest one of the challenge for me. I guess it had been a while since I made a go at pattern mixing and you should have seen my bedroom floor while I was desperately trying to find something that worked. I came up with some ridiculous outfits. I couldn't bring myself to walk out of my bedroom in those ensembles, much less venture into public. My boys were rather amused.

Hey there shoeless Joe. |
Yeah, it's safe. BUT! I mixed three patterns. Striped cardi (had a Target coupon!), feather printed blouse, aaand subtly patterned pants. Pat myself on the back.
Also, we went to our friends' little girl's first birthday party and I did, in fact, wear shoes. The party was at a park so I wore my park boots. They're ugly and beat up but they keep the nasty sand off my feet. It wasn't worth the effort of pulling them back on for pictures. Laaazy.
How did you do?? Link up below or add your picture to the Flickr group!
Verrrry pretty top Kayla - clever subtle pattern mixing! I linked my pattern mix but then remembered I'd linked it for monochrome too... whoops! Hope you don't mind :)

Cute!! I love both the cardigan and blouse. My patterns are subtle also but it was my first time mixing prints so.. small steps first right?! lol
ReplyDeleteYou look so pretty! I love that top on you :)
ReplyDeleteWell done pattern mixing! I usually mix plaid and stripes..I have to try to branch out and mix other patterns but it's not easy!

I love the cardi and top together.
ReplyDeleteI never would have noticed your pants had a pattern... I'm not that perceptive. HOWEVER, kudos for getting three patterns in one outfit! :)
I like this! I feel safer when the patterns are in the same color family.
ReplyDeleteHave the same cardigan. I love it and target! :)

It totally works!
ReplyDeleteI think I need more pattern in my life. That's what today's challenge has taught me.
That is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteYour hair is getting SO long!
ReplyDeleteI really love this outfit. I especially love that blouse...I think I need more soft and flowy in my life.

I just discovered your blog thanks to Bethany and I'm loving it! Your outfits are so cute and fun, and unlike a lot of other fashion blogs I've seen, I feel like I could actually do the things you do.
ReplyDeleteI like this a lot. It follows the one pattern mixing rule I know a really well. 'Match colors in the patterns.'
ReplyDeleteI ended up pull on a lot of thing I couldn't wear out of the bedroom either. I didn't think it would be so hard.
This looks amazing! I love the colors that you went with!! This week has been lots of fun with your challenge...can't wait to see what next week brings!!
ReplyDeletePattern mixing is hard for me too but it is getting easier. I love the look of stripes on stripes and was excited to try that today. Thank you for this challenge.
ReplyDeleteVery cute! I would like to remind you that you also mixed patterns with GREAT skill on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday of this week. I am so excited to be doing this and joining in all the fun.
