Houndstooth and Blue Leopard Outfit Idea

Throwback Thursday !

A look from my archives :)

Jueves de Recuerdo !

Un look sacado de mi baul lleno de archivos :)

I know that mixing patterns can go wrong, and that has happened to me a few times. I managed to take some pictures of them which I will post in the future. But this time I like the outcome. You can mix Houndstooth print with another print, and I would leave it there. This time I mixed it with a leopard print which has only two colors, blue & black. Both prints share black making it a cohesive look. Now, it's time to stop adding prints and just style it with a solid color like black. One more pop of color was red on the nails, lips, and if you can see well, there is a red stone on the ring.
Hope you like this idea.

Outfit Suitable for: Work/Office, Formal Dinner, Business Meetings, Theater-Opera.
