Match: Stripes
Don't ever let anyone tell you that stepping out in one pattern is a fashion faux pas. The most stylish of girls know the key to pulling off a single-patterned look, like these head-to-toe stripes, is through clever accessorizing. Try breaking up your ensemble with a solid belt or choosing pieces with varying sizes of the same pattern.

Mix: Textures
To create a winning combo that's sure to be eye-catching, you can always count on juxtaposing contrasting textures. As in the outfit above, a leather skirt balances out a lighter, more feminine patterned top. Finish off your look with some versatile shoes to truly bring it all together.

Match: Colors
It may be well past your high school prom, but we're reminding you why it's OK to go monochrome. From your dress to accessories and even your eye shadow, sticking to one color can be a fun way to play up any hue you're loving.

Mix: Styles
The girlie girls of the fashion world are flocking to ruffles, leaving those with an edgier style feeling left out of the trend. By pairing this ultrafeminine staple look with bold mirrored sunglasses or a touch of athleisure, every type of girl can get in on this trend and make it their own.
