Fashion advice needed

Ok, so I have a navy blue pinstripe suit. I normally wear a lighter blue shirt with it. I have a flower blouse that matches (colorwise). Can I wear a print blouse with pinstripes?

1. Yes.

2. Just because you can...doesn't mean you should.

:shrug:
I'd go with the light blue or a white. Keep it simple.

3. I'm with you.

But then again, I've been known for my simplistic conservative style.

4. Probably.

Pinstripe is subtle enough for some prints. If it looks good to you, then wear it.

5. yes! You can mix patterns, if you do so wisely.

Of course keep your bag/shoes/etc. very low-key if you're going to mix a stripe with floral. And it does depend on the floral - size, colorfulness, etc. What does the floral blouse look like? Big flowers? Small? Lots of color, or just one or two?

6. Medium flowers. Two colors.

Background is a very light yellow, flowers are 2 shades of blue, same as suit.

7. sounds very subtle. I'd go for it!

is this for an interview or just a variation on a work outfit? Either way - sounds nice.
