Stripe on Stripe

Lately, I’ve been trying to push myself to do more print-mixing using items I already own.  But instead of contrasting two different prints, I thought…why not mix two different colored stripes?  I have already done one look using this same idea in a somewhat subtle way (here).  Today’s effect is much more bold and while it may not be for everyone, I think it’s a lot of fun…plus quite festive in light of the upcoming holiday!

What I’m wearing:
Zara top (last seen here; similar here or here), LOFT skirt (last seen here; similar save or splurge), Gap belt (last seen here; similar), BCBG sandals, The Limited clutch, Accessorize necklace (similar), Bracelets: Sonoma (similar) & c/o Poshlocket (here), Lips: L’Oreal Target Red, Nails: Orly Lemonade

    I lie this. Since the stripes are the same size (or close) it doesn't look crazy. It actually looks like it could be a dress. Happy 4th!
