Bright and fun patterns can be a great way to mix up your wardrobe, however if are not careful you can make a major fashion mistake. When you are wearing a pattern that is bright of loud, it is best if you do the pattern in a small area. Rather than going for a dress or skirt, look for a top. Pair the top with solid pieces. Think of pair a patterned top with jeans. In some cases, a top can still be overwhelming, especially if you are of a small frame so you might pair the top with a solid color jacket or cardigan.
If you want to wear an all over print then you need to make sure that the print is not overwhelming. Look for print that is flowy and beautiful but not loud. Also make sure that the print looks good on your body. Make sure that the design of the print does not lay weird across your body. When you are wearing an all over print, it is also best to cap the dress at the knee. The design can begin to drown you if you go much longer.
If you want to wear something that has a pop of a bright color you want to make sure that your show off the color. Make sure that you are wearing colors that complement and go with the bright color but do not match it. There is nothing worse than someone trying to match the same color in all their pieces. Chances are you will not achieve the same color and the outfit will look forced and wrong.
If you want to wear a skirt that has a bold print, make sure that skirt is no longer than the knee. Any longer and you will disappear within the print. Make sure that the rest of the outfit is solids and that you are wearing a show that goes. You should never try to match your shoes exactly with a color in your outfit, but you should make sure that the colors go together.
