Styling Mixed Textures for Summer. When styling two wardrobe pieces together, you generally want to stay away from styling two pieces of the same textures. (Think silky + silky or woven + woven.) Instead, try styling opposite textures together for a more balanced, sophisticated look: woven + matte, silky + fuzzy, matte + silky, etc. OPPOSITES ATTRACT! Here are some examples below!
