Mixy-Matchy or Matchy-Matchy?

A few weeks ago, I found a couple of interesting ensembles at The Landmark. Particularly, a skirt-and-blouse pair.

The pair was a study in contrasts. With one being mixy-matchy, while the other was matchy-matchy.

Here's the mixy-matchy pair.

The top is a white blouse with a large windowpane pattern.

And I paired it with a black skirt, also with a window pane print.

And here's the matchy-matchy.

It's actually a vision in plaid.

And it has a belt to break the pattern.

The ensemble actually works both ways. So I'm glad I got both.
