Pattern Mixing: Florals and Stripes (and something awesome!)

If anything about my fashion has evolved over the last year and a half of blogging, its the fact that I am not afraid to be bold with patterns. Several years ago, I would have rolled my eyes at someone mixing plaid and leopard, or polka dots and flowers. But now, I find myself drawn to it!

When I purchased these pants I knew exactly how I wanted to wear them! I've had this shirt for months and have gotten so much wear out of it! I knew topping it with a blazer would be perfect! I actually wore this to my daughter's Meet the Teacher Night, but I swapped the heels for some flats. It made it much more casual! To make it even more casual you could always wear a denim jacket instead of a blazer!
