Mix and Match: 6 Style Combinations That Work

Sport with classics, romance with grunge, minimalism with a statement piece — how to combine them without missing the mark.

What Is a Style Mix? 🤔

A style mix in clothing is an engaging styling technique and a way to express your individuality by combining elements from different fashion trends and movements.

Let's look at a few successful style combinations from our stylist 👇

Sport + Classic

For example, you can pair sporty trousers with a classic shirt or blazer. Or wear a classic pantsuit with sneakers — or flip it, a tracksuit with heels. This creates a unique look that combines comfort and elegance.

Romantic + Grunge

The charm lies precisely in the contrast: light, romantic, and provocative against rough grunge. Think a delicate romantic dress or skirt paired with heavy-duty boots or a leather biker jacket.

Masculine and Feminine Elements

Mixing masculine and feminine pieces. For example, pairing a men's blazer (or shirt) with a fitted women's skirt or trousers can create a stylish, contemporary look with a unique gender balance.

Minimalism + Accents

Minimalism is known for its calm tones and clean silhouettes. Wear simple, understated pieces and finish the look with bold, saturated color in your accessories or shoes. This adds brightness and energy to the outfit.

Ethnic + Casual

Mixing ethnic style with everyday clothing can create a unique, compelling look that expresses your individuality and cultural heritage. Jeans + an embroidered shirt, ethnic touches like beaded necklaces, accessories, and more.

Safari + Boho

Combining safari and boho styles can create an interesting, one-of-a-kind look that blends an adventurous spirit with free-spirited bohemian flair. This could be, for example, a safari-style jumpsuit finished with boho jewelry and accessories — earrings, beaded necklaces, a bag, and more.
