1 Patterns Over Patterns
The basic way to start experimenting with patterns is to layer one type of pattern over a similar but different print. For example, take a floral top and layer it with a different kind of a floral skirt and you'll be done!
10 Try Longer Tops With Short Lowers
Mixing and matching you long tops, sweaters or other tops with shorts, skirts etc may also come in handy for you if you are trying to experiment with your look!
2 Block With Colours
Colour blocking is another famous technique that can be used to master the art of mixing and matching. You can don two different solid colours and create a blocking look and try experimenting with bold colours that you usually do not go for.
3 Don't Go For The Obvious Shoes
Footwear makes the outfits look more dynamic and multi-dimensional. And that is why it plays an important role in framing the complete look, just go for a pair of shoes that you otherwise wouldn't try and choose the most fascinating one that goes well with your outfit.

While the basic step remains to don same pattern, a pro tip will be to try two different patterns together, like stripes with cheques or polka dots, etc.
5 Experiment With Scarves
