Make bold choices like paring <strong>Rixo London\u2019s<\/strong> already pattern-mixed, <strong>leopard-on-leopard print<\/strong> <strong>Parker<\/strong> <strong>Skirt<\/strong> and <strong>their Mini Star Blouse<\/strong>. So why does this combination work? Again, there is a tonality to the look, with the blacks in each <strong>print<\/strong> tying it together, but the main reason is that one <strong>pattern<\/strong> is quite bold, while the other is a bit more subdued. Lastly, the patterns have a similar shape\u2026the spots of the <strong>leopard<\/strong> and the small <strong>stars<\/strong> feel the same, even though they are not.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 title=\"forgo-mix-but-make-statement\">Forgo The Mix But Make A Statement<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-35285\" src=\"https:\/\/www.luxe.elcorteingles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Clara-Mu\u00f1iz-S47W7236-2.jpg\" alt=\"clara-mu\u00f1iz\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Ok, so you tried <strong>pattern-mixing<\/strong> and it isn\u2019t for you\u2026how do you still have the pattern-worthy <strong>street style<\/strong> moment?
