Pattern that Works

Being a strong visual person I am easily attracted to patterns. But lets face it, some patterns just do not work. Even on skinny people. It was love at first sight with this top at Lane Bryant. It’s a crinkle satin material with bold irregular patterns on a black backdrop. It comes in sizes 14/16 to 26/28 for $39.50. I love the mixture of teal, silver, black and white. It works both closed or partly open with a cami. Denim or dress pants.

Now not every patterned top at Lane Bryant is a winner. Like these two that do not work and would not work, no matter what size you were.
