Today marks the second installment of my fashion inspiration posts. I chose to touch on the mixing of patterns and textures this month. I really feel like summer is about having fun, mixing patterns, trying new textures, just feeling out the waters around you, and trying something new, fun, & exciting.
Aside from having gorgeous photographs, these beautiful ladies below are brilliant at meshing different patterns & textures, and I just feel so inspired by their ability to do so.

Whipping together textures and patterns are some of my favorite things to do when styling outfits. These young ladies are beautiful at doing this job. Wonderful feature.

Thank you so very much my sweet! You are very kind! And lovely. And charming. And beautiful. But I digress
I love this series of yours, and what an honor to be featured with such wonderful bloggers. Hugs to you!
Nice feature! I love the fun patterns and textures!!
Great pics and selections! I adore the pattern mixing trend and hope it never leaves! It’s so much more fun when it’s twice the print. Particularly love the shot of By Anika! Great outfit>!
Wow I love the first girls hat and the skirt in the 3rd. What great inspiration!

So right about the mix of textures and patterns. You’ve chosen some wonderful bloggers.
I love the pattern mixing! Definitely not my strong suit, but I want to get better at it! =)

Thanks for including me! These pictures look great!
I also love texture and pattern mixing, and when integrating bright colors, is very appropos for summer! That said, I’m not all that great at it, and whenever I try, the patterns end up looking too busy; so I stick to my basic solids. =) These gals you’ve pictured here, though, are very inspirational!
So many fabulous examples! Love Kendi’s!
I love this post. Your choices are perfect. It’s difficult to mix patterns, but they did it perfectly.

Great collection of looks here. I especially love the one with the heart shaped glasses.
The Styling Dutchman’s look is insane! I have got to check out her blog!!!!
Gorgeous pictures. I always love seeing examples of mixing prints and textures and colors. I’ve never been very good at that, as I was raised to be very matchy-matchy.
Great selection of other bloggers to illustrate your point. Xxxx
What lovely ladies! I feel very shy about posting a big picture of myself. I’d love to hear feedback about how you feel having your picture up.
Everyone looks so pretty and summery! So nice of you to feature these lovely ladies!
Summer is for trying new things! Lovely looks you’ve posted:)
I love this freedom attitude to create personal outfits and interpret fashion your own way. Great post,
Sofía
