Stripes on Stripes

| DETAILS |

This outfit came together as a complete last minute trying to make it work sort of accident. That is a mouthful! I used to wear this top with a long black tank top underneath it. I normally do not wear a lot of prints, and I am definitely very new in the whole print mixing thing. About a year ago, I was most likely running late (because that is usually when some of my favorite outfits are born) and realized all my black tanks were dirty. In my I need to be out the door mode, I decided to try this striped tank on with my striped top to see if it would work. I do not think I have ever worn a solid tank top under this French Connection top again! For me, this outfit is a huge print mixing win! I know it’s just stripes on stripes, but it’s a baby step into the print mixing big leagues. I always find it interesting that some of my favorite layered looks come from times when I was in a hurry and did not have time to second guess if these things really go together or not. Maybe I should spend that extra five minutes playing with my dog in the mornings and giving her even more belly rubs than I already do, a beautiful outfit could be born out of the rush to not be late that typically follows. Happy Friday Ya’ll and thanks for taking some time to stop by my blog this week!!! Read another post, if it makes you run late maybe you will create a fun new outfit too. 🙂
