This fall is all about prints. From clashing prints to chain prints to florals, you can’t go wrong wearing a strong print. While mixing prints may seem like the out of the box option here there is another trend at the moment that gives people pause; print matching. This means wearing one print, head to toe and there are a few tricks to help you pull it off. Why We Love It In a world of making a statement via what you wear printed clothing is a great way to do it.

Growing up I was a ballet dancer. My ideal physical aesthetic was long and lean and lacking in curves. Luckily for me nature had different plans for me so after leaving ballet and going to college I grew these magical things called curves. Hello Booty. It has taken me most of my adult life to reconcile the fact that I am not ‘naturally thin’ but with the help of a loving husband who thinks my curves are amazing, I have embraced them. But the one thing harder than embracing a curvier figure is this: finding jeans that fit and flatter said curves. There have been a wave of jean brands…
