I wasn't excited about the pattern mixing trend when it first appeared a few years ago but it's grown on me. Angie's post inspired me to put together these three outfits. Only the first one has more than 2 patterns because I just don't have the right pieces.
#1/2/3 - This one has three patterns and I really liked it. The polka dots on the pants are tiny so this didn't feel overwhelming to me. I had problems photographing the outfit because the dots don't show up well although you can see them IRL just fine.
#4 - Stripes with a more organic pattern on the scarf. The tights are more like leggings - so comfortable and practical for a weekend day running errands and having friends over for dinner.
#5 - I'm wearing this today and really wanted to wear a patterned shoe with it but I didn't have anything that would work. I also thought about wearing this with a pair of floral pants but it was too much for the office. I might still try it for a more casual occasion, like a date night.
