Let’s talk patterns. They can overwhelm you, right? If you walk in to the store and shy away from patterns…..then this post is for you. Combining great patterns with your solid pieces is the perfect way to add dimension to your wardrobe. We’re sharing five must own patterns that won’t go out of style and can be worn year round.

STRIPES: Stripes are a classic pattern, that can be subtle or bold. Invest in a striped tee that can be layered, a striped dress, or tops with striped sections to be a little more trendy. Hint: black and white stripes are a classic mom style element that will never go out of style

COLOR BLOCKING: Does color blocking count as a pattern? It does in our book! Think bold. Simple shapes in great colors. A great color blocked tee or sweater is perfect to wear with jean shorts in the summer or colored denim and booties in the winter.

FLORAL: From summer sundresses to floral sweaters in the winter…..we all love a good flowered print. Try larger, bolder floral patterns to stay on trend.

PAISLEY: Paisley is a great classic print. From a sundress to a date night piece to a mommy and me outfit with paisley leggings…..it adds fun to your wardrobe without being TOO edgy.

PLAID: Contrary to popular belief you can totally wear plaid year round. From sweaters or button downs in the winter to plaid printed tees in the summer to gingham dresses in the spring, plaid may be our favorite print. It’s a total classic, and something you can guarantee will NEVER go out of style.

What is YOUR favorite pattern to own? Do you love to wear plaid? Is your favorite tee striped?
