Final Styling Tips for Printed Tops

• Balance prints with neutrals – If your top is bold, keep the rest of your outfit neutral to let the print shine.
• Mix prints with caution – Stripes and florals can work together if they share a common color palette, but then keep accessories minimal.
  
• Play with textures – A floral mesh top with leather pants or a striped button-up with a satin skirt adds interesting contrast.
• Accessorize wisely – Let the print be the star by choosing simple, elegant jewelry and classic handbags.

In short, no matter your style, printed tops are a fun way to add personality to your wardrobe. Whether you're going for feminine florals, timeless stripes, or playful polka dots, the key is to wear them with confidence!
