If you are looking to simply spice up your wardrobe, patterns are a nice touch to any outfit. Patterns are a way to make yourself look chic and classy effortlessly.
The first pattern I would love to add to your wardrobe is leopard. This is one of my favorite patterns. I don’t know why, but whatever is leopard, I just have to buy it. A nice leopard belt with a black dress will pair oh so nicely. Or a leopard blouse with red pants is also a nice pair together. A red lip is also a gorgeous pair with leopard. It's just something about red and leopard. It’s something about those two colors together that make an outfit look so very chic.
Stripes are one of the best patterns to wear in any season. It’s a seasonal pattern that can be worn summer, fall, spring, or winter. Stripes also are a cool go-to pattern for casual or laid back wear. A navy blue and white stripe shirt would pair very well with a blue jean. Call it how you see it, but I really feel like stripes can make you look smaller. Now, it does matter if the stripes are horizontal or vertical, but if you want to appear slimmer, go with the horizontal stripes.
The third pattern that will boost your wardrobe is polka dots. There's something about polka dots that make any outfit look classy. Polka dots are the perfect pattern that you can wear to work, a wedding or a date. My favorite is a black and white polka dot blouse with a black pant. Polka dots may be the riskier pattern because some people feel as though it does not look good on them. But the polka dots don’t have to be big; they can be the smaller, petite polka dots.
The final pattern that will complete any ensemble is zebra. Zebra is a pattern that seems to be not so easy to find while shopping. I mostly see zebra patterns on pocketbooks or belts. I would put a zebra pattern with a yellow item. This color combination would really bring out the zebra pattern.
Overall, I love patterns on blouses, pants, pocketbooks or even belts. It's something about patterns that will transform a boring outfit into a chic outfit. Patterns are an easy way to spice up any outfit in your wardrobe. If you are looking to transform your style into a stylish or chic one, try some of the patterns this week to see how you feel.
