Tribe It. You Might Like It.

 via Sass & Bide

As a proponent of seasonless dressing, it's always fun to find ways to mix spring pieces into the good ol' cold weather wardrobe. And while we're experiencing spring-like temps in January, these nice days only heighten one's desire to throw chartreuse on with camel or pair a ethereal white blouse with black leather.

One of spring's most interesting and versatile repeating offenders happens to be the tribal print. What we all have to love about it- besides the gorgeous explosion of color and interesting lines- is how easily these patterns pair with the dark colors we love to wear right now. 

Take Blake Lively's look below from Dec. 26. For a chilly night, you could easily throw a black blazer over the dress and pull on a pair of tights. Once warmer weather approaches, wear the dress with a pile of bangles and strappy stilettos for a summer time chic look.

Both Parker and Sass & Bide have taken off with the trend for spring. Some of these pieces are already available now, such as the Parker jacket above. Don't your skinny navy cords and black blazers crave these vivacious prints now??

And just in case you can't see yourself in such eye-catching clothing, stay on the lookout for tribal inspired accessories, such a beaded and layered bib necklaces and printed bags. White tees with jeans or dark suits crave these interesting add-ons.
