The Fashion-Girl-Approved Prints You Need In Your Wardrobe
… and how to wear them.
Let’s face it – maximalism is the new minimalism, and there’s never been a better time to say ‘sup’ to prints.
Word on the street (style) is, a checked blazer is the new black blazer – and you’ll earn extra points for wearing a matching mini skirt (think 90s supermodel/Clueless vibes). Plaid, gingham, polkadots, stripes and leopard are the prints du jour – the trick is knowing which pieces to go for and how to style them.
But don’t stress – this doesn’t mean you should do away with your black, white and grey just yet. These ‘safe’ colours make it simple to ease your way into wearing colour by way of layering.
If the thought of wearing anything but all-black is super scary, try wearing just one printed item to give a minimal outfit a modern twist (e.g. polka dots and gingham tops will instantly add French vibes to your denim pieces).
Whether you’re ready to go all out in plaid pants, or you’re just dipping your toes in (to a printed slingback at the weekend), we’ve found nine outfit combos below that nail prints.
Keep scrolling and you’ll see what we mean ;).
