STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Playful Prints

June 15th, 2015 at 2:00am

Imagine living in a world where every piece of clothing was a solid color. No prints, embellishments or groundbreaking spring floral design would adorn a single dress, shirt, skirt or jacket. What a nightmare! Thank God it was just a hypothetical situation. I can guarantee you that every man, woman and child has at least one item of printed clothing in their closet, and if they don’t, their closet must be very boring. Prints, patterns and embellishments are used to make pieces of clothing and the person wearing them stand out from the bunch. Don’t get me wrong, I love a good minimalistic look, but every now and then I can’t help but slip on a pair of polka-dotted jeans, a floral bomber jacket or sparkle in an embellished top. Our Fashionista shows off her floral print in the best way possible, in a super easy and summer ready romper!

Rompers are God’s gift to Earth, I swear.  Who doesn’t love strutting around in a fashionable playsuit all day? Pair it with gold jewelry and a cross-body bag like this Fashionista and let the pattern do all the talking. Printed rompers like this are perfect for summer. Add one of these to your closet and it will serve as the perfect summertime staple. It’s an easy all-in-one outfit that you can slip on and be done with. There’s no need to worry about finding a cute top and pair of shorts to go with it—I know how stressful that can be. So take the stress out of getting ready and buy yourself a printed romper to get you through the summer with ease. Just make sure before you buy one that you try it on and give it the booty test. Everyone wants to see the amazing, stylish clothes you are wearing, not the assets that should be covered up.

Just remember the wise words of fashion icon Iris Apfel. “Listen to your inner muse and take a chance. Wear something that says, ‘Here I am!’ today.” (Translation: wear those daring prints and express yourself!)

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “I love rompers because they are so easy. If I ever need to go somewhere quick and need an outfit pronto, I reach for one of my rompers and I am ready to go in five minutes! This print makes me love it even more; its super fun and not too overbearing.”
