Bored with what’s in your closet? Mix it up! The best thing about this season’s Winter looks: there isn’t just one way to wear them. Mixing trends will keep you going before you start to update for Spring.

Creating a contrast is one of my favourite ways to mix trends. Here’s how:

• Add lace to the androgynous look
• Add ruffles to the military look
• Add a touch of mod to vintage
• Mix preppy with glam 
• Wear pearls with fashion sneakers
• Wear colours that clash, but work
• Experiment with layers

Stand in front of your closet tomorrow and come up with a new combination of clothing and accessories. Invent your own way of interpreting a trend. Designers look to street fashion for inspiration all the time and you might end up being somebody who starts a hot new trend.
