Cool Hues + Warm Neutrals

how to wear stripes

Stripes have the ability to make bold, dynamic statements. They not only command attention, but they also add appeal and linear quality to a figure or outfit. One of the best attributes about wearing stripes, is that they can be easy to mix and match with. While this is somewhat of a spring time look, I feel that it carries well into the warm autumn we are having in SoCal. Pairing the top with neutral/fall colored pants and sandals make it work. And like usual, I love matching my lip color to my nail polish. This time my nail color was slightly darker shade of bronze than the shimmery shade of orange on my lips. But it worked out pretty well. Anyway, how do you all like to wear your stripes? Enjoy! 🙂
