For those times when my energy is particularly low, and I’m veering toward exhaustion, I like to mix the patterns in my outfit to give myself a slight boost..

Today, after an extremely tiring week, I decided to mix a black and white gingham short-sleeve shirt from Who What Wear X Target with a pair of red floral, print pants, and a black and white checked hat.

Graphically appealing. It also has the pop of color I need to get me through another tough day at my day job in Special Education.
