Mixing prints and colors has been my favorite thing for years but lately I’m kind of drawn to the match-matchy sets. When I spotted this Hinge two of a kind skirt & blazer a while back, I thought how 80′s and felt it was too matronly to pair the two.
Well, fashion has a way of playing tricks on me because I came across this set again, tried it on, accessorized it and I had an immediate change of heart. The matchy faux-pas was thrown out the window and I found my new love for matching prints and colors. Since I’m still standing in shallow water, I didn’t want to go overboard from head to toe so I paired this set with a white top and neutral shoes to offset the prints (I still refuse to wear matching shoes/belt/purse). I love how fashion can reintroduced an idea that was once considered bad taste and made it work, because wearing this doesn’t make me feel matronly at all… I felt fearless, fun, and young!
What do you think about the matchy-matchy trend?

Yay! You went for the matchy-match floral prints like you told me! Definitely NOT matronly here! And I love that you made it a bit flirtier with the white bustier and even printed mixed with that reptile-patterned bag. This is a super gorgeous and very spring-like look, and I can’t wait to see what other matching print looks you’ll come up with next! :)

You’re definitely not afraid of bold print. You pulled it off so well. I wish I have your warm weather. It’s freezing here. Have a great week, K!
Your accesories are ideal for your look. We love it.

You are seriously amazing! I love this! Another look that I love. :)
This whole time i thought this was a short suit, how absolutely adorable and fitting that its a skirt suit!! I can definitely see how you initially thought 80′s and idk maybe its me and my love for the 80′s but this is incredibly stylish and chic! I am on the hunt for a good short suit, idk if you have seen any around lately but if you have please let me know ;)
Loving this outfit with a passion,

You look super lovely!! I love the floral print and how you paired it with a beautiful sweetheart neck! You look like a vision of spring hehe. Thanks for the inspiration! xo
I really love how to added your accessories and sweatheart top to give the whole outfit a modern feel to it. The necklace adds an edginess that I really love. And that bag and shoes are to die for!
You look GORGEOUS and ou make whatever you wear works because of your confidence KT! I never been a fan of matchy matchy outfits either but I have seen them everywhere lately and tbh some can’t really make it work but some does. I personally hate the matching belt, purse and bag (and I’ve seen that too lately) but I’m sure if you ever get into it, you’d make it work also! :)
