Three Ways: Floral Skirt
Mar 8, 2011
Unless you’re feeling adventurous, it’s best to pair a printed or floral skirt with solid neutrals. It’s significantly easier than matching prints (that’s another lesson for another day), and if you choose the right colors and separates, it’s just as chic.


All three are cute! I love the floral necklace.
In the museum outfit, I'm wondering about matching the dark hardware on the jacket with the gold clasp on the bag. Is it okay that they don't match since this is a more casual look? I have a number of pieces I would like to wear together (olive jacket like above with gunmetal snaps with gold purse etc.), but together they just look …off.
Thanks, Belle!
I happened to buy this exact skirt last weekend but wasn't exactly sure how I'd wear it. These ensemble suggestions are awesome. Thanks!
Beautiful!! Stopping at Anne Taylor on my way home tonight… Thanks Belle!
I mix-and-match metals (jewelry, bag hardware, etc) a lot and I don't think it's a faux pas. I feel like that “rule” dates back to the time when women were expected to match their shoes to their handbags.
Or, in the words of Stacy and Clinton, “It doesn't 'match.' It 'GOES'!”
