Now, one of the reasons many of us live for neutral staple pieces is because you can throw the whole accessory book at it to change up the look all together! But what about when you find a piece that is printed and to die for? Well the reverse holds true, keep your accessories simple! Simple doesn't have to mean boring mind you, but if you have one fabulous statement piece then you try to keep the rest of the outfit muted to let the statement piece...well...make its statement!
A few tips off the top of my head:
- if the print is light and summery, keep the accessories light and summery as well. Taupe/nude shoes, wooden, pearl or other natural element jewelry thats light in colour, white accessories are always fresh.
- if it is a darker print then black accessories are #hawt.... you could also do gold or bronze or a darker wood.
- try to keep all the accessories matching or at least in the same colour family (white, mother of pearl, off white...banana yellow, soft yellow, mustard) that kind of thing.
- you could pick a colour from the pattern and wear accessories within that colour family
- you could also go bare, with maybe just a watch or some earrings. Some pieces need no help

Matching pumps and quirky sunglasses. I agree with the blogger on this one, really love this fresh summer look. Some choices I picked out below:
