Perfect your paisley print with Etro
Listen guys, if you're gonna invest in some paisley, why not turn to the king of the pattern himself-- Etro.
Ellen looks utterly chic and vacationy, Italiano style- in her tunic paisley print co-ord. Not to mention- she's completely on trend.
We've said it a million times, and we'll say it again, the kooky 1960's print is back in style. But this time designers have modernized it a bit with slender fitting pants and more simple silhouettes.
Ellen's look is great because with one small adjustment to footwear, she can go from daytime casual to evening by switching out her sandals for heels.
It can look edgy too- layer it under a moto jacket and voila!
Etro's intricate and outrageous prints often come with outrageous prices to match. But don't you worry, because everything's groovy on the high street where we can find similar options at more affordable prices.

The star covered her arms with a long sleeve design and also chose a similar print for her long legs.
She completed her look with brown strappy sandals and pulled back her blonde tresses in a loose updo.
