    Thank you for this video. I remember when Jenna Lyons was the fashionista for the clothing manufacturer, J. Crew in the early 2000’s. Her trademark was print mixing, but I thought her combos looked as if she had chosen prints from a huge box of clothing where shirts, skirts, dresses and trousers were thrown into it and jumbled together. I prefer your approach to print mixing: More thoughtful, intelligent and elegant.

  • @kimberlyperrotis8962
    @kimberlyperrotis8962 3 года назад +7

    Thanks, MA, I didn’t know mixing prints was back on trend. These are my print-mixing rules: 1) One of the prints is a geometric (regular polka dot, stripe, check, or tartan, color-block or regular, repeated shapes like chevron, triangles or squares, etc.) and one isn’t geometric/regular, (floral/foliage, animal, paisley, some tie-dyes, irregular dots, splotches or free-form designs like clouds, etc). 2) The prints have two different scales, with one noticeably larger than the other (but none too large, because I’m petite). An example would be a small, ditsy floral and a medium-thick stripe. 3) Both prints should have at least two colors in common; white, black, navy, khaki green and beige all work well as common colors. Probably the most usual way I mix prints is to wear a floral-print silk scarf with a geometric-print, like a stripe or check on top (shirt/blouse/top/blazer/jacket) with a solid-color bottom.

    Hey Marie Anne! I turned 58 in August , and sometimes I still feel like a teenager especially when I dress up or wear a new shade of lipstick. You look fabulous at 57! Actually 57, 58 ...... 60, they are the new 42 😄. Moreover, I now feel even more confident as my age has given me the wisdom that lot of the younger people around me are lacking. As wisdom comes with age, so I think that our age is actually our greatest confidence booster 😊💖.

    Very interesting video. For the benefit of those of us who might be still “novices,” I wonder if adding a scarf with a print that picks up the colour(s) of the other print might be a way to ease into mixing prints.

  • @kimberlyperrotis8962
    @kimberlyperrotis8962 3 года назад +11

    Dear Marie-Anne, I do like mixed prints, but I think that in the outfit you are wearing, the prints are too similar in scale and pattern (both traditional geometrics), and they don’t have enough colors in common. I think the blue and white is in the “sharp” family and the brown check is in the “muted” family, if that makes sense. I really hope I don’t hurt your feelings, and I wouldn’t have offered my opinion if you hadn't asked. Remember, I love 99% person of everything you wear! I think I’m just pretty rigid about print mixing, as you can see in my other comment. Brava for wearing it with confidence, though, that’s the most important thing of all.💕

    Kenzo's outfit is amazing. Thank you for sharing it with us.
    I like mixing prints the way shown on the thumbnail: ovals with stripes, a small geometric print with something more abstract-- like watercolors blending into each other--or a top with tiny black polkadots on white with a skirt that has larger white polkadots on black. I also have a pinstriped cornflower blue button down that I wear with shorts that have colorful sailboats on a background that matches the blue of the shirt. It's a favorite pairing of mine for summer, so happy and nautical! I prefer it when my prints have a common color story.

    Hi anne Marie, i love the idea, it's very much British to mix prints ike lines and dots...or the amazing stylist who used to design the collections of JC crew or St Laurent who was the first to mix unusual colors for instance dark blue and black or pink and red ...however I think with your lovely " pied de poule "jacket , I would suggest perhaps a dark shirt with dots or even better something like a Liberty print .....and then add a nice silk scarf wearing it "deconstruct" somehow I find the "shades" / the "ensemble" a bit grey / depressing but I always like jeans with a jacket and sleeves up and the derbies but the shirt too classic . :-) I agree about your comment...je constate cela aussi "malgré moi" ...I was not aware about the passing of the talented Kenzo , he had such a way of mixing together ...and I like those jeans on you ...PS: anne Marien le lien pour le jean est incorrect , it is a link to a Boden Black dress ..

    The colors of your jacket and blouse are subdued and the prints are small and look really nice together. I couldn't go giant dots and stripes together, that would not be for me.

    Bonjour Marie Anne. Have to say don't wear a lot of prints, if I do it's probably more likely in the summer in way of a ditzy Navy print top and of course always stripes in sweaters as well as tunics etc .. But now I'm fully into autumnal colour roll neck or cowl neck sweaters with brown, green and black jeans and trousers etc.. Have a lovely bottle green roll neck sweater that I have a matching gilet and jacket with.. Off to a girlfriend for lunch today, she makes lovely meal and I bring scones and jam for afterwards.. Have a great weekend Paula x

    I started mixing prints and mixing the masculine with the feminine when I was in highschool and have been doing it ever since. The masculine with the feminine simply became my style. I've always enjoyed contrasts. I moved from California to an agricultural state to care for very elderly parents and I really stand out here because the women wear oversized men's t-shirts and ragged work jeans or sweat pants. I don't fit in at all and get teased mercilessly for my style but I refuse to adopt their terribly frumpy look. Even the t-shirts they wear are worn out and faded. I dress better than that when I clean stalls and do horse care.

    I love stripes and checks but avoid flowers ( except for a nightdress) as I think they are ageing and remind me of a chintzy sofa or pair of curtains!
    Or even Granny’s apron. Perhaps a tiny flowered print for summer dress would be ok. Block colours on a petite person is better in my opinion.
    Geometric prints can be very smart too, as long as they are small.

    Bonjour :) your videos are always so enjoyable and convincing, and your outfits perfect, but I'm afraid mixing prints isn't something I like! Too busy, too much information for the eyes and brain (at least mine) to enjoy the outfit... I just want to look away. It's as if someone had nothing else to wear or tried too much just to be trendy... this is probably because it's what my generation was taught (do not mix prints) and it's still engrained in my mind :) But I will say that you look great as always :) I'd just prefer if either your jacket or your shirt was in a solid colour, it might be less trendy but more chic, in my humble opinion.
