Button-Front Skirt

Stripes and dots

Polka dots have been my favorite pattern for a long time, but stripes are definitely a close second. Putting them together is so fabulous, and I’m glad that mixing patterns is not only accepted, but encouraged in the fashion world. For an easy way to mix, opt for neutral patterns and/or patterns that share a color, like white in this outfit. A button-front skirt (in a midi-length) runs the risk of looking a little homely, but pairing it with booties and casual layered tops keeps it fun!
