Fashion Diary – July 2019
This year, mixed patterns are a big trend. We dare you to not be afraid to mix it up, and be bold with print clashing. By combining feminine patterns and stripes with bold colours, you get a casual chic look with a dash of fun. This summer, more is more!

If you are scared to add too many patterns and want to tone it down a bit, this modern-fit blazer from Sand Copenhagen is a great choice. It comes in a delicate pinstripe pattern that is easy to mix with other patterns, and has a cut that sharpens the silhouette. Made of pure linen, it adds a luxurious feel.
Sand Copenhagen, ‘White Star DB’ blazer, £445
Tie dye has made a serious comeback this year, and is an easy pattern to play around with. The tie dye effect on this tee from Nudie Jeans Co is designed to look like a clouded summer sky. When wearing it, you will bring a little rain with you wherever you go.

With the current nostalgic trend in the fashion world, the scrunchies are back! We think this decorative yellow silk scrunchie is a great way to add a touch of print to your outfit. Wear it around your wrist or in your hair.

We adore this cute swimsuit from Becksöndergaard, a Danish brand creating accessories for women who love unexpected, playful and colourful design. The frill details, striped print and pastels will make you look great on the beach this summer. Why not put a skirt over it and use it as a top too?

The more patterns, the better. Mix these high-heel sandals with another floral pattern, stripes, or even graphic prints, for a daring look. The sandal comes with a printed band to wrap around the ankle and a small strap underneath to make sure the sandal sits nicely on the ankle. The printed band is removable.
