Mixing Prints with mark. Aztec Empire Shorts

I’m not a huge fan of mixing prints but done right the payoff is pretty, well, fun! Stripes are the easiest print to mix and match with. To break into mixing prints stick with classic colors, like my black and white tank here (Express, old). The black and white stripes in the tank play off the black and white stripes in the shorts, just switching up directions. Just for kicks, mix the prints with super fun accessories, coral jewelry (mark., old), a neon clutch (mark. Glam and Roll Jewelry Case used as a clutch), summer staple sunglasses (Coach) and flat strappy sandals in coral and snakeskin for more print mixing (Sam & Libby Karina Sandals, Target)! Keep the accessories all in the same color family to mix and match them into your mixed prints to keep the look from going too overboard!
