Friday's Fancies: Stripes

Oh, boy. Stripes. The quintessential universal perfect print! There used to be a time where I'd pretty much buy any printed item I saw. I still kind of suffer from this (wonderful) affliction, but I've toned it down a bit. Stripes are just so versatile and work for everyone! Whether you go for a thin stripe or thick, in neutrals or brights, horizontal or vertical... Everyone's gotta love a stripe!

A little bit afraid of print? Then your feet are the perfect place to rock stripes! By taking a classic outfit, adding classic accessories, and throwing in a classic shoe in a classic stripe, you can take the plunge!

{jacket / purse / headband / skirt (similar) / shirt / wedges}

Like I mentioned above, stripes are so classic! Combine your stripes with classics like a denim jacket and a white button-down, and you're set! Throwing in a fun wedge and a quirky headband can take these classics up a notch!

Can you tell I'm digging classic prints in classic silhouettes lately? I love the neutral tones and slick leather in this outfit, but I think that statement necklace adds an awesome pop to spice it up!

What is your favorite striped item in your closet?
