STRIPE IT UP

 

Spring, Summer, Fall & Winter....The Stripe is a classic.                        

MOOD MUSIC

To me, a striped item in your wardrobe is key. I personally suggest this item be in a quality fabric as it can be worn any season from year to year. If you don’t have any striped piece, I suggest starting with a classic navy and white ¾ top. JCrew and GAP tend to carry this top in both a cotton and quality fabrics. Click on this link for Striped Items from J.Crew &  go ahead and stock up!

Here are some visual inspirations to get you started or expand your stripe arsenal......


 
For the daring, try bright colored stripes, long maxi dresses and head to toe stripes. I like to take a classic piece and add my own personal style to it.


 
 
 
 

 

 
 A classic weekend stripe.... Opt for this look below over sweat pants when running errands....
 

 

One of my favorite style mavens, Olivia Palermo, I love how she takes the classic stripe and dresses it up with costume jewelry.

 



 
Vertical stripes elongate the body and what woman doesn’t want to look leaner!



Hope this post insprires you to show your stripes proudly!
