How To Wear Stripes

Stripes make me smile, there’s just something about their elegance and their ability to go with so much. When I saw this skirt on ASOS I thought, “I’ve got to have it!” Sure, the description called it a prom circle skirt and I’m definitely aged out of that. But who cares, right? I already had on a prom skirt why not take this thing all the way? Big jewels, cropped denim, velvet, and some leopard – if only 2003 had been so stylish.

Plus an array of other goods – the universe continues to hook me up.

You can pair with animal print as seen here, or camo, and even floral prints. Don’t be nervous about looking too busy – the pairing works perfectly. I recently bought this jacket and can’t wait to put the two together.
