Even when you're more the type for a minimalist look you should really try a print. Go for a beautiful silk top with a striking print like this one by Essentiel Antwerp and team it with a timeless pair of jeans. Playful, but never too much.

The major trend for fall/winter 2017 is called the print clash: a mix of different prints in one look. Our pro tips to create balance in this look: go for fine prints instead of heavy prints, optionally break up with solids or choose to mix prints in the same colours. Pieces with stripes are always a good option because of their classic look. Are you – just like us – a fan of leopard print? Read our blog post about how to combine leopard print here 

Tip 3: Go for the print-on-print look
