Little Striped Dress


Being a self-professed stripe-aholic, I think one of the most versatile pieces you can own for spring & summer is a perfect-fitting striped dress.  This one in particular has such a fun shape (& the cutest cutout in the back!), plus it’s just as easy to dress up with a blazer & heels as it is to dress down like I did here.  If you’re nervous about horizontal stripes having a “widening” effect, stick with a thinner width stripe and you’ll be pleasantly surprised by how flattering they are!

 

 

 

What I’m wearing:
c/o ShopMamie dress (here), TinselTown Denim Couture jacket (via T.J. Maxx; similar here or here), Old Navy sandals (similar), Pulicati tote (via TJ Maxx; similar), Forever 21 fedora (similar), Madewell belt (similar), Forever 21 ring (similar), Bracelets: Vintage & c/o Poshlocket (here), Dockers aviators (similar), Nails: Essie Madison Ave-Hue, Lips: Maybelline Fifth Ave Fuschia

Don’t forget you can vote for me once a day for me here in the Wallis Fashion blogger contest – I would so appreciate your support!

    I loved the dress and the stripes, and then I saw the back! I love the dress even more now.

    I, too, am a stripe-aholic. Especially come warm weather.

    A striped dress is totally on my wishlist for this season! And a jean jacket might be too, even though I thought for the longest time that I didn't like them. I think you're brain washing me 🙂

    You look SO cute! I love everything about this outfit! I am also a total stripe fiend, so of course I love the dress, but there are so many other cute little details here – the polka dot belt with the striped dress is just too cute and I love your fedora! And denim jackets are the perfect pairing for a striped spring dress! Love this!
