I just love this top so much! It has all of my favorite details: the color pink, stripes and polka dots. I mean, come on, polka dots in the stripes? How much better can it get? I know that I just wore it last week, but I received so many lovely compliments that I decided to remix the top for this week's Mix It Monday.
Floral scarfs are such an easy way to add springy details when you still need to layer-up a bit. And a striped top with a floral scarf is an easy formula for pattern mixing! To make sure it works, I usually pick a scarf that shares a color with the striped top.
This skirt is another one of my new favorite pieces because it features a fun polka dot print but the print is so subtle, that it can act as a neutral. I can't wait to wear it into the summer months and then in the cooler weather with tights!
Floral and stripes and polka dots, oh my!
And here is how I wore this top before: paired with bright and pastel colors in shades of blue and pink! Which look do you prefer? How should I wear this top next?
What I'm Wearing:
Top: Loft (exact)
Scarf: Lou Lou (splurge, similar)
Skirt: Loft (exact)
Shoes: Lindsay Philips (similar)

Thank you! I still feel risky mixing so many patterns but then it feels even better when it works :)
