Somewhere over the past few months, prints have wormed their way into my wardrobe.
I've always been more into block colours or big bold patterns. But somehow, I've acquired a range of items covered in intricate patterns - some verging on something you might find in a Magic Eye book.
And they're not just in sensible places like on blouses. I'm also wearing printed pants - going against every rule that says you must never draw attention to your least favourite bits with eye-catching fabrics.
If you're slowly coming around to the idea of prints, too, there is no shortage at the moment. There are diamond-print blazers and matching capris to wear to work, pretty printed sundresses, lots of Batik-inspired harem pants that are perfect for lounging around the house, and even accessories.
Although this trend seems to break a lot of the golden rules for flattering dressing, I suggest sticking with one: If you're going crazy with patterns on one half of your body, keep the other half relatively plain. Unless you're a model in a lookbook - they seem to be able to get away with anything this summer.
