Not only have I been stepping out of my comfort zone and playing with more color in my wardrobe as of recent, I’ve also been playing with mixing prints. For me, the key to mixing prints is to stick with prints in the same color family to avoid looking like a clown. I was going out bowling yesterday and wanted to rock these loafers that I purchased from Forever 21 a few months ago. This is the first pair of flats that I’ve purchased in years and I wanted to still be a little “fancy” even though I was wearing flats. I decided to pair them with my metallic cheetah print leggings and a striped blouse…

I loved this pairing of prints and it was the perfect outfit to match my loafers.
Do you mix prints?
Looks lovely. I don’t usually mix prints but I may try now. Also i’m opposite to you, wear flats and can’t wear heels:/ Trying to train my feet though. xx
You should try mixing prints. I started out very simple with stripes and plaid in the same colors, black & white. When you gain more confidence you can be a little more adventurous
I’m trying to train my feet for flats. I wear heels so much that when I wear flats my arch hurts. I will have to try to wear flats more often
SOOOOO cute!!! You pulled it off great!!

Thx Cherrie!
Hi Erica! Love the style, but your face is so flawless!! It is always flawless, don’t get me wrong, but it just seem different. Or Maybe it is just me….lol.
Lol well thanks. I’m not using anything new in this post. I did apply a little more concealer under my eyes than usual because I wasn’t feeling too great, but that’s all. Maybe my iPhone just made me look extra special
Oh Erica, you broke a fashion rule…but you looked great doing it. I Wonder how you manage to do that? Maybe it’s sticking to the same color family. Love the loafers btw!

I try to step out of my comfort zone too, but when I do at times I look horrible! You on the other hand look fabulous!! I love the combination of studs, strips, and leopard print!!! I love it and your smile compliments the outfit well!

Thank you so much. Maybe start out with all of the same colors and two different prints, like black and white for example
