Fun Black and White Outfit
If you are an artist (or even if you’re not), then you know who Jackson Pollock is. You know, that guy that slung paint around on canvas making abstract entities? Well, this skirt totally reminds me of one of his paintings, which is why I think I was so drawn to it. I have been told many times that I dress “artsy.” I guess this time it’s pretty literal.
Again I am doing the print mixing thing, only this time I am using only black and white. As stated in a previous post, although both patterns are on a larger scale, they combine well because one is slightly more toned down than the other. For instance, the polka dot shirt is classic and grounds the chaotic print of the skirt making this Fun Black and White Outfit a whole a little less crazy. Black and white jewels adorn the neckline and gold bracelets finish off the accessories. Of course, I have to add a pop of color somewhere to push the limits just a bit more, so these hot pink heels do the trick. I would like to think that if someone were walking down the street and saw me wearing this, they would think I was fun…not insane. Haha!:-)
What do you think about print mixing?
