Prints are huge this spring, from pretty florals to classic stripes. But while designers went bold with this trend on runways, WeHo residents seem to prefer a toned-down approach on the street. For a case in point, these individuals paired their prints with neutral pieces and muted shades.

Randell Mayrina, Graphic Designer/Photographer, and Jason Kimmel, Student
Mayrina, 31, and his friend Kimmel, 18, were sitting on Sunset Boulevard, minding their own business when we saw their zigzags and spots. After chatting about their gelato (mango, and roasted almond and fig from Caffe Primo), we learned that Mayrina was playing host to Kimmel, a pre-dental biology student visiting from Indiana. “We’ve been to a few clubs … and just went to the flea market,” Mayrina said, referring to the Melrose Trading Post. Kimmel’s top is from Wasteland on Melrose (“I dressed him!” Mayrina said), and Mayrina’s top is from Topman at the Grove.
