A huge styling trend for this season is to clash prints within your outfit!
The trend has been spotted all over the catwalks for the Spring/Summer ’18 season, including collections from brands such as Natasha Zinko and Mary Katrantzou.
Now you are able to rock the same look with more affordable pieces!
The key rule is to match colours together, rather than the actual prints.
If you are a little timid about this trend, why not start small with a stripe and floral combination?! It doesn’t matter how subtle or bold the prints are – you are still able to pull off this trend!
Read on for our top tips on how to style your print clashes with confidence!
Stripes and Florals
Ganni Floral Print Blouse, Jijil 3/4-length Trousers, Vans Old Skool Sneaker, Charlotte Olympia Embellished Leather Backpack
This is definitely one of the simpler ways to pull off the clashing print trend!
We have teamed an orange floral blouse with a pair of culotte style striped trousers for a summer-ready look.
A pair of Vans trainers help to pull the ensemble together, still incorporating the orange tone into the outfit.
To finish off, we have added a quirky flower shaped rucksack from Charlotte Olympia to add a touch of individuality to the ensemble
For some matching eyewear, why not add a pair of Vuarnet VL1613 frames, and continue those pops of warm summer colours with a sunset yellow lense? Grab them below!
Simple Statement
Ganni Fayette Animal Wrap Top, M&Co Jdy Red Skinny Jeans, Stella McCartney White Sneak-Elyse Stars Sneakers, Moschino Shoulder Bag
For this simple yet bold look, we have paired a classic leopard print shirt with some bright red jeans for a great colour combination.
The addition of a matching red Moschino handbag and a pair of striped platform sneakers compliments and continues the print clash effortlessly.

Chunky white boots have been added for a slightly vintage fee, while the statement tasselled earrings give a modern twist to the outfit.
