Cupcakes and Cashmere

Sequined Stripes

February 14th, 2011



Karen Walker Sunglasses, Vintage Sweater, Madewell Jeans, Michael Kors Watch, Cupcakes and Cashmere for Coach Bag, Jeffrey Campbell Wedges

Every now and then I come across an item that fulfills all of my clothing fantasies in one. I’ve always had a thing for stripes and I love how the sequins make this sweater a little less nautical and a bit edgier. I had first seen it on the arm of another shopper last week and patiently waited until she decided not to take it home. A bit creepy? Most definitely; but it was well worth the wait since it’s now one of my favorite pieces in my closet.

    Love the sweater and the story behind you buying it. I love that the bottom stripes are smaller than the ones, it really makes it unique
