Today I thought it would be fun to take one of my classic all-time favorite looks, stripes, and come up with three new and "updated" ways to wear them this spring. I know for many of you the thought of spring is a little crazy right now, especially because we still have over a month of winter left, but we've been having significantly warmer {and extremely pretty} days here in LA lately.. I'm talking mid to upper 70s, people. Lots of sunshine, crisp mornings, you get the idea. But I digress! Even though I'm just as happy pairing my striped sweaters, cardigans, and tees {yes, I have variations of all three} with black skinnies and ballet flats, it's always fun to mix it up now and then.
Sweater: Collette by Collette Dinnigan; Shorts: Chicnova; Flats: Luxury Rebel; Beige Top: By Malene Birger; Skirt: Windsor; Booties: Rag & Bone; Bracelets: H&M; Blazer: A|Wear; Tank: Acne; Jeans: J Brand; Shoes: Jimmy Choo; Watch: Kate Spade New York
So whether it's pairing a striped sweater with scalloped shorts and flats for a flirty look, flaunting your stripes in maxi skirt form with a loose top and booties for a more laidback feel, or wearing a structured blazer with boyfriend jeans and chic wedges.. this just goes to show there are so many ways to wear stripes. Which is exactly why they're my favorite!
How do YOU like to wear stripes in the spring?

i have a sweater that looks JUST like that striped one (but from target) and some salmon-colored shorts (hello to winter old navy sales... got them for $1.99 a few years back)!!
would be a fun outfit to wear on those early summer nights for a wine and cheese picnic on the roof ;)
Such great items!
I love the shorts and boots.
