Eye Of The Tiger

I am so excited to announce the winner of She's So Me Blog's Very First Giveaway!! 
***Drummmm roooooooolllll*** Aaaaaaand The Winner is Ms. Janice Phillips! Congratulations and thank you so much for entering the giveaway and being a loyal reader of The She's So Me Blog!!!

So yesterday was a very cold and rainy day here in Atlanta and, I must say, my mood definitely coincided with the weather. With that being said, I refused to let that slump control my day. Usually, when I am having a crappy day, you can tell because I will mostly likely be dressed sloppily. Here's a fun fact about me also, when I am dressed crappy I feel even more crappy. So, yesterday I decided to pick out something nice to wear and show everyone that I have the eye of the tiger!


A little info about the outfit I picked out!
As you all know, I love to mix prints. It drives my mother crazy but I love it: polka dots with stripes, animal print with tribal print, stripes with animal print. It doesn't matter to me as long as I can make it work.



 I mix my prints in such a way that you almost don't realize I am wearing two (or more) different types of prints. 


The secret behind mixing your prints is to always match the undertone. Find one color and build the outfit around it. In this outfit, my color was navy blue. I created my navy blue outfit first, then added the tiger print cardigan to it after. When it comes to mixing prints, in the words of rapper Drake - "started from the bottom now we're here."



Don't get overwhelmed and think too hard about the outfit. Fashion is an art. It should be effortless and it should be an illustration of what you feel. So, don't sit for hours trying to figure out which prints go with what. Just take it easy and build your outfit from the bottom up!
