Bold Prints: Ladies Edition


Well Ladies, as you all know we have recently seen an influx of bold prints and patterns worn by the celebrity women. So what we want to do today is look at a few looks, and give you some ideas on how you can simply incorporate bold patterns into your wardrobe! So continue reading to learn a thing or 2!

First up, Ms. Emily B! She is known to wear some pretty bold prints and we figured we start this post out with her. Here she is seen with a pink accented, black & white printed top. She tied in the front giving it a casual look. It looks like she has on either some black leggings or a really dark pair of jeans. Either way, it goes great with the top. Adding to the boldness of the look, Emily threw on a pair of silver geometric designed earrings..along with a unique knuckle ring. 


Now for yourself, you can start out with the exact same shirt if you would like. However if you want to make this look your own try a different shirt, such as this one. To ensure that your shirt is going to be somewhat of a looser fit, we suggest getting a size bigger than you normally wear. Also if you want to leave a few buttons undone at the top, be sure to throw on a solid color bandeau! For bottoms we think that you should do a jean short, or some black skinny jeans..depending on the look you are going for. For shoes, throw on a wedge to complement a casual girly look. Try some bold earrings and a knuckle ring to reference back to Emily's look. 
Very simple and not hard to achieve, at all!


Next up we are going to look at a pair of bold printed shorts given to us by Solange. Seen here she has on a stripped loose fitting button-up, tucked in to a high waisted pair of red printed shorts. Her necklace makes a big enough statement, making earrings unnecessary. Also, considering that the shorts are bold there is really no need for her to over-do her look with a bunch of accessories (i.e. rings, bangles..). We are not really sure what shoes she went with but they look to be a cream/white color.

Want something similar? Well most importantly you need a bold pair of shorts, such as these or these. From there it doesn't take much. Either you can match them back with a solid color top to keep it simple..or you can take a risk and grab a top with some stripes. Referencing Solange, we suggest that you go with a nice statement necklace. Don't like the necklace? Well a nice pair of vintage earrings would look great with both pair of shorts. For shoes we think that flat or heeled sandals would go great depending on the occasion.

Lastly we wanted to dive into the bold printed dresses&jumpsuits. Below we have Evelyn, Emily (again), and Teairra Mari all in the same print proving that the bold print is really in style right now. While Evelyn and Teairra Mari both have on the middi-dress version, Emily has on the jumpsuit version. As you know dresses are not hard to style at all because all you need is your shoes and accessories and you are ready to go.

**btw both the dress and jumpsuit are from ASOS.com

There you have it Ladies! Bold Prints at their best, hopefully you got something from the post..and as we say constantly, if you are unsure how to put together a look with a bold piece, keep it simple!
Till next time.
