We analyzed three layered looks and offered tips to inspire your own mix-and-match outfit.STRIPESVary color shades by mixing bright colors with darker ones, like this bright green blazer and dark navy vest. Add a striped shirt and bow tie for a dazzling effect\u2014the key to mixing stripes is for one of the patterns to be noticeably larger than the other.PLAIDSThis dark grey and purple combo works together beautifully and the white shirt and boutonni\u00e8re balances out the darker shades.
