Mix, match prints for fun style

There are some fun styles and accessories to try on this summer.

StyleWatch magazine featured some of these looks in the May 2017 issue with straw market bags and much more.

Embellished straw market bags are a fun way to go to the beach or meet friends for lunch in style. This bag is embellished with tassels, pom-poms, seagrass and colorful straps. The handbags range from $50 to $300.

Next up is prints, which are popular right now. Solids are always safe but mixing prints is what your favorite fashionistas are wearing.

One go-to print inspired by some street style bloggers is the gingham print. If you have gingham print in black and white, then you can do so many different looks with this print.

You can choose virtually any color shoe and look great.

Mixing prints can be so much fun, if you allow yourself to be creative.

If you choose to wear big, bold-colored prints, pairing it with neutral accessories will tie the look together.

But if you want to try mixing prints that wouldn’t typically go together, just make sure the size of the prints are similar and find an accessory that will tie both looks together.

For face, try primping with pink lipstick. Whether you like a glossy finish or prefer a smooth matte finish, pink lipstick is swapping out with the ‘90s nude and neutral tones that have been trending for the past year.

The haircut of the moment is the to-the-chin chopped bob. This short bob ’do can be versatile too, by changing your part, adding texture, straightening it or by sporting waves or curls.
