my life in stripes

i was going through my photos the other day, and noticed a trend. i like stripes. i like to wear them under a simple sweater.

and i own more than one striped tee. here, i’m wearing a tee and shorts

i have a striped blazer that i wear with pink.

what could be better than a striped sweater with a pea coat?

unless it’s a striped skirt paired with one of my favorites – a cardigan sweater.

sometimes i double-up on stripes. if one is good, two is better. right?!

but then, i can pair it back to a simple striped dress that looks great under a jean jacket and hat.

stripes under a blazer is a match made in heaven.

i have stripes in gold.

and stripes in black and white.

stripes with pattern.

stripes in blue.

and, of course, a striped button-down never gets old.

so there you have it. if you haven’t guessed by now, this girl loves stripes. anytime, anywhere…
