How to Nail Clashing Prints for SS19

Are you ready to step out of your clothing comfort zone and play with print this season?

From floral and stripe infusions at Versace to head-to-toe patchwork at Etro, the Spring/Summer 2019 catwalks were rife with loud hues and contrasting combinations. Think complete carnage, but in the very best way.

You got it – clashing prints are making a comeback for SS19. Arguably one of the most creative and fun trends for the warmer months, all you need is confidence to be able to not just wear this trend, but wear it with style.

New to clashing prints or finding them a little tricky to master? Not to worry – read on for how to nail them to stand out for all the right reasons.

How to Nail Clashing Prints for SS19

Match the Same Type of Print With a Different Variation

Look pretty in print this season by rocking an outfit in the same type of print and then clashing the print on top with a variation on the bottom.

For example, opt for the same floral bloom in the form of a shirt and trousers combination for a smart casual occasion, but be sure to alter the colour or the size of the print for the second piece a la Louis Vuitton.

Alternatively, for casual wear, try a cute horizontal striped tee in neutral hues (like navy and white) and pair it with a horizontal striped miniskirt in a multitude of rainbow hues.

Either way, you’re sure to pop in the summer sunshine.

Mix Up Alternate Styles of the Same Print

Another way you can experiment with clashing prints is by wearing a different style of the same print in one outfit for a unique, fashion-forward look.

For instance, wide-legged trousers featuring large blooms teamed with a ditsy floral print blouse is super on-point in the style stakes for SS19.

You could also consider throwing on a black and white zebra print long sleeved top with a classic beige and black leopard print midi skirt to channel ladylike luxe, as inspired by Burberry.

And do you know what this means? That’s right – animal print is sticking around for another season. Roar-some.

Create a Clashing Print Party

Now, for the interesting part – not all clashing prints need to be so coordinated. Adventurous style mavens, take note!

Designers such as Self Portrait and Dolce & Gabbana have made it perfectly acceptable to mix random patterns to create eclectic and artistic ensembles.

Whether this an outfit that consists of a printed dress with an opposing printed jacket or a hero piece in the form of a mesmerising mixed print maxi dress, one thing’s for sure: chaotic fashion has never been so cool.

Opt for an All-In-One Piece

Struggling to get your creative juices flowing with this trend? That’s okay – it happens to the best of us. In this case, why not opt for an all-in-one piece that does the clashing for you?

Patchwork jumpsuits or dresses are great options to ease you in gently, especially in soft and earthy tones a la Chloe.

If you fancy being a bit more daring, embrace clashing prints consisting of vivid colours in the primary palette (such as reds and blues) and you’re guaranteed to turn heads.

Pulling Together Clashing Prints for SS19

Clashing prints may be an acquired taste, but if you take the time to explore them and learn what works for you, they can be wardrobe-altering.

For newbies, start small with a floral blazer and check shorts or a subtle animal print crop top with a bold polka dot print mini skirt.

Oh, and don’t forget to keep your makeup and accessories to a minimum. After all, the trick is to let your clashing prints stand out and do the talking – and boy, do they have a lot to say.

What do you think to the clashing prints trend of SS19? How would you wear them?

Current bottomless brunch uniform: an oversized sh Current bottomless brunch uniform: an oversized shirt, high-waisted jeans and square-toed strappy heels. 💃🏼
This is basically the 2022 version of “jeans and a nice top” — comfortable and practical for a long day/evening out but still contemporary and stylish.
I went for a soft colour palette for Saturday’s brunch in York because I thought it would look fresher for the summer season. 👀 
I also usually add a light jacket to tackle the pesky British elements but I didn’t need one last weekend. 🥵
The gorgeous mint green satin shirt is from @zara and my straight-leg jeans are @topshop (old), adding some nineties nostalgia to the mix.
I’ll link all pieces in my Story. 💕

Seeing all these news headlines about airport queu Seeing all these news headlines about airport queues is so frustrating. 😖
A trip abroad starts at the airport, and it breaks my heart that people who haven’t been able to travel or go on holiday for years and have worked so hard to save up are now experiencing delays and cancellations when it’s finally time for their trip to begin.
Speaking from experience, these queues stress you out before you’ve even got to your final destination. ✈️
I’ve flown from Leeds Bradford airport three times in the last nine months and Manchester airport once in the last few weeks. Each trip to the airport has taught me something different.
That said, I wanted to share a few things you can do to speed up your time at the airport so that you can make your flight and have the much-needed holiday you deserve. 🤗
Above all, follow your specific airline or airport recommendations. (These usually come in the form of an email or text message a couple of days before your flight.)

Hope this helps. 💕

Courtyard strollin’… (Looking for my next cup Courtyard strollin’…
(Looking for my next cup of coffee or glass of sangria — it all depends on the time of day!) 😉☕️🍹
This cute courtyard was in the middle of Palma city. The architecture and restaurants huddled in the square with al fresco drinking and dining instantly transported me back to Italy.
It reminded me of past cruise ship holidays with my parents where we visited the likes of Naples, Capri, Rome, Florence and Pisa and we would be in awe of the charm and beauty of these places.
But this post is about Palma in Majorca. 🇪🇸
Palma itself is a delight!
There’s so much going on in the centre, so much life and hustle and bustle, which is refreshing to experience after over two years of lockdowns and travel restrictions. 😅
I enjoyed our leisurely peruse of the city, soaking up the sun and seeing historic sights such as The Cathedral of Santa Maria, which dates back to 1601.
We even spent some time getting lost amongst the cobbled backstreets, popping in and out of shops before we regained our bearings once again. 😍
Our day in Palma reminded me how much I love exploring and how much travelling makes me feel fulfilled.
You just can’t beat it, right? ❤️
I already can’t wait for my next European city break (which hasn’t even been booked yet!).

One of my all-time favourite travel fashion pieces is the blue denim “mom-style” shorts.
You know, the relaxed-fit and high-waisted type that go with just about anything? 😉
You can pair them with a strappy top and sandals or flip flops for those warm summer days.
Or you can take them from day to night by swapping the strappy top for a chic blouse or cropped shirt and the flat sandals or flip flops for heels.
They’re just so comfy and cute! J’adore. ❤️
These ones are from @marksandspencerfashionpr which I’ll link via the @shop.LTK app along with some similar options.

I lived in mine for my most recent trip to Majorca - even throwing them on over a bikini with a kaftan for those lazy pool days. ✌🏻

That post-holiday feeling! You know, when you lan That post-holiday feeling!
You know, when you land after a few days in the sun and you feel refreshed, recharged and ready to take on the world again. 🙌🏻
And it helps if you travel in comfy clothes.
Plane, train and bus rides can be time-consuming (and stressful when things go wrong) so comfy travel gear makes the journey that little bit more bearable. ✈️ 
I’m currently loving lounge sets to travel in, such as this “Bon Voyage” lemon number from @lornaluxe x @inthestyle . 🍋
You can still get your hands on the shorts but, unfortunately, the sweatshirt is out of stock.
Not to worry though - I’ve linked some more pretty lounge sets to travel in via my shop on the @shop.LTK app.

(But then you’re so excited that you end up not having the best sleep! 🤦🏼‍♀️)

I’m blue da ba dee da ba di. 🎶 Okay so I uni I’m blue da ba dee da ba di. 🎶
Okay so I unintentionally wore blue, white and black all weekend.
Outfit one was for a Betty’s brunch for the hubby’s birthday and exploring Thirsk. 👀
The blue denim dress and checked shacket combo felt a bit sixties inspired and sassy teamed with black tights and white boots.
Then outfit two was for a pub lunch and drinks with the family (hubby’s birthday celebrations part two).
I went for a blue floral top, comfy black jeggings, a blue denim shearling jacket and those white boots again. 👢
This felt more seventies rocker vibes so naturally I had to wear it with attitude!
