Mixing It Up

Cameron Durham Photography 
Top: J.Crew Factory (similar) // Skirt: Kate Spade // Flats: Dee Keller // Purse: Tory Burch (old) // Sunglasses: Prada // Bracelet: J.Crew // Earrings: Kendra Scott
I’ve never been the best at pattern-mixing, I feel like some of my gal pals just have such an affinity for it. However, I took a subtle step towards the unknown with this little polka dot & stripe mixed number. My mom gave me this Kate Spade skirt as a little treat for Easter and I’ve worn it so many times since. Not only does it fit like a glove, but it’s the perfect length and doesn’t get too wrinkled after a day of wear. 
Another thing getting tons of wear in my wardrobe are these Dee Keller flats. Seriously y’all, some of the most comfortable and versatile flats I’ve ever owned. I’ve been contemplating purchasing another pair of Dee Keller flats in patent navy, just because I love them that much. How cute are these slip-on wedges and this pair of strappy patent & cork wedges?! After just two times wear, the supple Italian leather formed to my fit and I’ve had absolutely no problems. Just a note on size, I ordered half a size down from my normal 6.5 flat size. 
Hope you have a great start to your week! And a belated Happy Father’s day to all those wonderful fathers, grandfathers and father-figures in our lives.

    Love this outfit! You definitely did a great job with mixing the stripes and polka dots. I think that pattern mixing works well if you consider the colors not just the patterns, and who doesn’t love navy, yellow and white!
