Wearing prints is a fun way to add visual interest to your outfit.
The trick is making sure you wear the prints in the right way. If you are new to wearing prints, try and keep the rest of your outfit simple. If you are wearing the print on your lower half (pants/skirts/shorts), make sure that it isn’t too large, so that the print isn’t too overwhelming.
So what are your thoughts on prints? Do you shy away from wearing them or do you love them? Let me know in the comments below!

Thank you! xx yael
I’m not keen on printed pants but when I wear them, I tend to put on a jacket on top to power it up a bit.
Great idea Kate!! Thanks for sharing! xx yael
I shy away from prints mostly because they aren’t really common for men to wear. But I’m trying to go against that trend a bit. I think the advice to start off simple and to not get too busy is sound advice. I didn’t know about keeping the pattern small on the lower half, but that is something I will definitely try to do with my next pair of pants. What are some good choices for a subtle print to warm people up to men wearing prints?
Hi Patrick!!! Hmm…i think this is pretty subtle because the colors aren’t too loud! I would say keep the colors more muted and the pattern small to help you feel more comfortable at first! xx yael
Loving all kind of prints but you are right : if you wear a printed piece, it is better to stay neutral with the other pieces …
Or totally extreme and mix tartan, with dots, and stripes and flowers !!! ( I am kidding but one might say “wow, so edgy “). Xoxo
LOL LOL – the statement about someone saying “wow, so edgy” is so spot on and cracked me up!!! Thanks for the wonderful comment!! xx yael
