I adore how you actually explain how to do it rather than just examples or just two suggestions. You have real reasoning behind this! I love this, love love love. You're amazing. And please do a stripes video!
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN MY WHOLEEEE LIFE! I needed these fashion tips. Keep it coming I love vintage but I hesitate sometimes not knowing what or how to pair or match pieces together. Thank you for sharing.
I adore you. So glad I found u!! How u don't have a bazillion followers is beyond me!! U r going to blow up girl. U r gorgeous, brilliant , creative and so incredibly helpful.
I hope this video really helps you with my tips on how to mix prints. Do you have any specific questions on how to style prints and patterns? If so ask me in the comments below. Take care, Karen xxx
Giiiiirl! AMAZING!! Please darling, show us how to use other shirts as a belt!!! I have been on a hiatus since having kids...putting them thru school and kinda set myself on the back burner of fashion...BUT!!!...OMGERD! I 'accidently' hit on your site and I....AM....BACK! Could you also do a vid with you going to a 'second hand shoppe' and pulling clothes and putting some outfits together? I used to do this back in the day and just need a refresher...it's been like TWENTY YEARS GIRL!! O.o I just chopped my hair to a chic curly bob...and went through my closet...now I just need a lil' help!!! TY TY TY!!! *clap clap clap*
yeah it really saves me! I slighted regretted what I bought recently- you know, every print, ruffles, laces look so pretty and I took it all and turned out to be my nightmare at the end. Cuz my wardrobe is fulled with simple basics so I lost my mind what to do with all new lovely things. Your tips and sample shots seriously helped me!!! Thank you so much xx - Mind you to leave my styling request as well? I spotted some 'glitter or metallic(?? not sure the term)' items on your instagram and it looks so cool. Can you share us how to style 'metalic' items in the summer? (Is it feasible? or is it better to do in Christmas season only??? don't know. if it's okay to mix it on my summer look, let me know. - also let me know it's risky things to do in the summer. I may should be careful about it. Have a nice weekend!
KarenBritChick Love your videos! You're so animated and passionate when you talk about styling.. Also please film a video on different ways to wear shirts/blouses. Thank you! 😊
A new video from you--Yayyyyyyyyyyyy!!! I've been a fan of your blog for literally years but for some stupid reason never realized you were on RUclips until last week (I know, duh!), but I've been enjoying binge watching your videos all week, and I think they are fantastic! You and a cup of matcha or coffee in the morning while I am contemplating what to wear--perfect combination.
I just love it when you get excited about things. I was online shopping the other day and saw this dress that made me mad crazy and thought of you and how nuts you would get!
Thank you Karen for another helpful video! I have found mixing prints very tempting yet difficult, but thanks to you maybe I can start now! I have watched many fashion RUclipsrs but you are my favorite: you are truly stylish, natural and funny! My Sundays begin with a long breakfast watching your videos that give me inspiration for the following week. Keep up with the good work! A hug from a Finnish girl in Spain
Hello Karen!! I used to follow your blog since the begining, I found you when I was finishing Uni, studing Fashion, and you're there on my fashion blogs list since... You were one of my favorits! Then all this youtubers appeared and I have to confess I stoped following blogs that much... But now I've found you again, and I'm so happy you're here!! Back to my favorits again, and even better, because now, earing and seeing you speak, we can get you even better and realize you have the bigthts personality. Realy like your videos. Keep up this lovely and tasteful work. I'll be checking your tips weekly
I'm hooked on your videos (almost forgot to make dinner last night). They're better than a fashion magazine--more informative and definitely more entertaining. I sew my own clothes and am a very visual learner, so love hearing your suggestions and seeing all the photos with which you illustrate them. Thanks for sharing!
Just here confirming my love of patterns. Thinking about how I got into patterns,just came from the fact when I ran out of laundry and all my basics needed to cleaned. It takes a lot of experimentation. With little time running out the house, I'm either "Wow this is unexpectedly cute" or "Geez this is worst than I thought" I recently bought the Marine Serre second skin in the beige and I paired it with a black and white polka dot shirt on top. I was in love. The base color don't even match but the fact that the pattern where similar sizes and shapes, tied it together.
This has always been a "how did she do that" thing for me!! You explained it perfectly!. Base color. Duh. So obvious but it was the "thing" I didn't get at all! Yes, please do a striped with striped shirt video. Thanks!!!
I haven't seen you wear belts that much but a belt video would be great. I'm 5'0" and am busty so I have a hard time with dresses/tops that have no waist. But of course, what do I love??? Things with no waist. My husband says I obviously like looking 9 months pregnant. Good God. When I do try to add a belt for structure I just feel like something is off like the belt doesn't work with the fabric or it's too large or too skinny. It's just wrong. I need to throw everything out and just start over.
I am so happy you've really committed to making videos! I've loved your blog forever, but you on video is just muah! You're a complete natural, and have managed to fill a void by just being yourself.
I love this topic. Reminds me of a study I did at university of Japanese kimonos and the geisha. I was really taken by their combinations of floral and geometric patterns. Thank you for this video!!
I'm glad I ran across your channel. My mom was a sharp dresser,me not so much. I do basic neutrals and black. But after watching your videos,I'm ready to try new stuff.
I love your ideas and enthusiasm. I have always loved the idea of mixing prints and buying more prints but always chicken out but your advice is heavenly. will give it a go.
Karen - you're a life-saver when it comes down to style tips. Your explanations are "to the point", easy to follow and so easy to understand. I'm more of a monochromatic two-tone kinda gal, but this video made me want to try out some totally different styles! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Keep these videos coming, we love them, we love YOU ;) Lotsaluv from a fellow Londoner xoxoxoxoxoxo
OMG! gorgeoussss . I have 5 print fabrics I bought about 3 weeks ago. I'd be referencing this video for when I want to sew them. Thanks for this helpful video
Love you, Karen! You have inspired me so much with your mixed prints and the way you have broken it down here is so clear. It's all about the base!! xoxo
You are truly amazing and I am obsessed with your style. Love this video because I love prints and like to mix them. Keep posting these videos and I will be your loyal fan!!!
I really enjoy your videos, great fun, really informative and you give loads of information but you get straight to the point. Some people take ten minutes to tell you something not that interesting. I feel with you that I am having a fun conversation with a good friend. Love it.
I love all your videos but this is possibly my favourite so far!! Can I tell you just last week I bought my first ever leather loafers from a vintage shop and it was so because of you Thanks ❤️️❤️️
Love your videos! And your hair! This was really inspiring and got me thinking about things in my own closet I can mix and match - like my gray and white stripped sweater with my white pleated lace skirt. I've never know what to wear with that darn skirt. Oh boy!
Great video!!! Loved it!! Can't wait to try some of these tips.... Please do the video on wearing shirts differently. Love how you wrap them around your waist.
I loved your advice ! The piece's you'v shown together are really amazing ! I love your excitement for fashion. I totally get it ! Fashion & makeup really is my passion ! Thanks for the inspiration ;)
Thank you so much! This is full of great info. I stumbled on your videos just recently but quickly knew I had to subscribe! I have wanted to mix patterns but wasn't confident in my fashion eye until watching this video. I'm curious what you think of hounds tooth pattern in different colors. i love the classic pattern & recently put a red/black circle skirt with a white/black jacket. I loved it!!!!
Excellent. I forgot to add, what for lack of a better term, I’ll call native prints (first nation american, african, ikat, etc). Also, there is tie-dye, the patterns of which can look like almost anything from clouds to geometrics. I like to mix my medium-scale single-color plus white tie-dye with ditsy florals. Mixing prints is really fun.
i was going to give a backhanded compliment of how u remind me of me, lol! I do this for friends, self, etc. But ur work ethic is impeccable, the example pics, the easy to understand references, the entire look of the vid...baby! I got so excited, I thought I had Enninful on speed dial, then I realized it was just me tripping again. But know that if I did, I'd have him calling u ASAP!!! love everything about u. Bingeing on ur vids as we speak!
Dear Karen: Once again, you go above and beyond. Agree with @leopardprint0--this is the best mixed print tutorial I've ever seen. Why? Because you've actually taken time to break down your intuitive creative process in order to share it. The effort you put into this--and your infectious enthusiasm!!--go a long way in helping people step out on a limb and have fun with, rather than just following fashion. Off now to mix a B&W batik wrap skirt with B&W Breton striped T...Thanx! xo
Lol...love how excited you get and all your expressions. Would love to see a video on how to wear textures. Is there a rule for wearing textures and prints?
As always... u r spot on with everything!!! I love mixing patterns and textures. I never knew the rules behind why it just worked but it jus works. my go-to outfit is florals and black n white stripe.
Hey, loved the video! What would you pair the yellow floral zara pants ( 8:05) with? I got them recently and struggling a bit to put things together, like shoes and top. All I could think of was black crop top and black slides....Would really love to hear your tips :)
Hi Karen, excuse my english - I´m from Austria. You made me get a You tube account because I have to tell you your videos are so good, a pleasure to watch. I love your enthusiasm. Go, Karen, go! :-)
I adore how you actually explain how to do it rather than just examples or just two suggestions. You have real reasoning behind this! I love this, love love love. You're amazing. And please do a stripes video!
I wasn't sure if I was over explaining to be honest. I know what I am trying to say and just hope that I actually am. Thank you!!
I said it before but I just want to say it again: you're fabulous! Love your sense of style and your videos
Ahhh thank you!!
You are better than all fashion mags out there. I don't watch tv. I watch RUclips - and I now watch you a lot! Love your talent!
This is the best Mixed Print video/advice I have ever seen.

Absolutely loved the video, so fun! But I'd like to know how to make stripes and polka dots work together!
You are so bloody stylish! I found you last night, and couldn't stop.
Excellent. I forgot to add, what for lack of a better term, I’ll call native prints (first nation american, african, ikat, etc). Also, there is tie-dye, the patterns of which can look like almost anything from clouds to geometrics. I like to mix my medium-scale single-color plus white tie-dye with ditsy florals. Mixing prints is really fun.
i was going to give a backhanded compliment of how u remind me of me, lol! I do this for friends, self, etc. But ur work ethic is impeccable, the example pics, the easy to understand references, the entire look of the vid...baby! I got so excited, I thought I had Enninful on speed dial, then I realized it was just me tripping again. But know that if I did, I'd have him calling u ASAP!!! love everything about u.

Getting exited to dive in my wardrobe and mix and match! Make Art with clothes! 🎨
