Striped Situation

August 18th, 2011

Marc by Marc Jacobs Sunglasses, J.Crew Headband, Blouse, and  Vest, Vintage Belt and Bracelet, Michael Kors Watch,  Anthropologie Skirt, Mulberry Bag, Miu Miu Heels, Vintage Pins

I own so many striped pieces (you can see a fraction of them here) that it was only a matter of time until I started wearing them together in the same outfit. While most of the striped items I have are more casual (like this, this, and this) I love that this blouse is a more refined version in a silk button-down.

    I love the stripes on stripes, the colors you chose made it so anybody can do this look and not be scared.

    I have, and love that anthro striped skirt! Now mixing stripes with other stripes I have not dared to do, but looking as cute as you do- I’m going to give it a whirl!

    I love the bow shoes. I’m on the hunt for a perfect pair of bow pumps. I’m loving a Manolo Blahnik pair but not sure if I want to splurge.

    I’m a bit afraid to mix stripes, let alone different patterns, but the way you do it makes it look easy, yet pulled together. That skirt is fabulous, but then again everything from Anthropologie is. The belt really pulls the look together.

    I love the combination of the two different sizes of stripes, it makes for such an interesting outfit! And I’m a fan of that army green thrown in there too :)
