Since so many of you have commented recently about wanting to see how I put outfits together, today is the first in a new monthly series called Perfect Pairings. I’ll show you two affordable looks based around the same theme…and for June, I’ve chosen stripes! I especially gravitate towards striped pieces in the warmer months – what could be more summery than a classic breton shirt and a bold red lip? And because I found so many great budget-friendly options, I’ve included even more items that you can scroll through below for whatever your personal style may be!
Outfit #1: Mango Shirt // Dorothy Perkins Boyfriend Shorts // Forever 21 Huaraches (real leather!)
SHOP MORE STRIPES:
Transitional Knitwear
Macy’s Holiday Favorites
Spring Neutrals from Uniqlo

I totally agree! I always seem to gravitate towards stripes also for the summer months as well as the winter! Love outfit #1!!!

I LOVE stripes. I think I have about 20 striped tops in my closet (and I am not countin dresses and blouses)! From the two looks I like number 2 better but I would probably wear number 1 more often!! 🙂 xo, Christina

Stripes are probably my absolute favorite 🙂 Love both the dress and the tee, and the two sandal pairings 🙂
I always love stripes, that shirt is adorable! Great pairing with a little coral.
