Add some personality with prints and patterns. Like Hilary, you may even mix prints in a classic way by going for the same pattern in different scales on your top and skirt and contrasting it with a striped clutch giving you that trendy yet quirky look. Or, add some variant to your looks by going for a polka dots blouse teamed with a striped pencil skirt and classic pumps. If you’re not a fan of mixing prints, just pick ones in quirky, eccentric, or even novelty detail that can do the tricks for you.

We’re always taught to keep everything balanced and proportional, but it wouldn’t hurt to get avant garde and unexpected from time to time. Like Hilary, instead of toning down your bold colored polka dots blouse with nude pair of heels, add some twist with a red pair of classic pumps. If you’re wearing an abstract print outfit with contrasting patterns, you can even make it creative with a bold necklace and a pair of cobalt blue shoes like she did.
