everybody's read the standard tips for pattern mixing: stay in the same color family, combine different scales of patterns, stripes go with everything, and such. this "cloud print" dress (they look more like badges to me, but maybe other places have perfectly geometric clouds and i'm just missing out) has been hanging around in my closet trying to befriend other patterns. i've been trying to figure out what to pair it with, and while the rules of pattern mixing provide some inspiration (see above), i want to attempt to be a little more creative with this. so, i need some help from any professional pattern mixers out there to help me decide which of these works and which is a little too anthro-catalog-explosion-ish. there's even a vote box below!
