Regular readers of INEZ Daily will know that I fully endorse whimsy – it’s my default style.

One of my favourite ways to achieve this is by layering an eclectic mix of patterns, textures and trims – think animal prints, lace, coloured fur, sequins and spots (but maybe not all at once).

Fashion Editor, Julia Sarr Jamois (pictured) is the master of this.

There’s just a couple of tricks to pulling this off without looking completely mad:

1. Pick prints that have a common neutral base (like white or cream) and either the same or a complimentary colour palette (think pink & orange or purple & green).

2. Include a couple of black accents with your trims or accessories to tie it all together

3. And then, volia! Watch as all these pieces magically transform into one harmonious (albeit quite bold) outfit.
