#mustTrend: Mix and Match clashing patterns

Black and White is any shape, form, and pattern is the #mustTrend and for good reason. It is simply timeless. The twist this season is to mix and match clashing patterns in unexpected ways: stripes and dots in the same outfit is my favorite.Keeping it in black and white and with a heavy dose of black as the foundation (i.e. pants, dress, skirts) and piling up some cool accessories is a crowd-pleaser.
