Character Lining

A little flash of a patterned lining is a nice way to try mixing patterns in a subtle way...

Coat: Betsey Johnson (Try one from here on sale). Shirt and leopard trousers: Forever21 (try these or these). Boots: Jeffrey Campbell. Bag: Balenciaga (avail here). Hat: Trash & Vaudeville. Shades: Street vendor. Scarf: (not seen) Love Quotes

Going out recently wearing a white shirt with leopard print pants, lace up boots and a long black coat.   You can't see it too well here but the wool coat has a cute lining of illustrated characters. You only get a flash of it when walking.  If you have a patterned lined coat, play that up by wearing patterned clothes with it. Same applies to an inside lining in a bright solid colour  e.g pink - wear contrasting solid colour clothes e.g orange.

ps. I just added a search function section to the top left side of the blog.  Readers ask how can they look for a particular type of post e.g only show posts wearing leopard print so this should help.  You can either click on the categories shown or in the search bar just type in the keyword you are looking for e.g. sequins, thrift, vintage, brogues etc.  I tried to cover what you see most throughout the entire blog.


Play around with it a little and let me know if it helps you? Anything missing? Any feedback will help to make it better for you!
