Has anyone else noticed the massive increase of striped merchandise this season? I feel like I am just seeing stripes everywhere I go! Adding a pop of color in jacket form adds interest and breaks up the print.
The lipstick I’m wearing that matches my jacket so well is Maybelline # 685 “Craving Coral” in matte. I love it and wanted to share because of how creamy it is for a matte finish. Plus, it usually lasts all day, which I also love.
Seeing Stripes
While doing some light spring shopping and research, I have noticed a huge increase in striped prints. I found this cute, striped, lightweight button down at Marshall’s and had to have it. It’ll be perfect for summer as well as spring because of its light material. Just layer with a jacket for the cooler days, like I have done. I’ve linked some similar styles here and here.
When it gets a bit warmer this outfit would be so cute with white jeans and it would give off a more summery-vibe. try a pair like these or these. I love doing the half-tucked look, like shown above. It creates an effortlessly cool feel, and makes the outfit look a little less put together, in a good way.
Adding a bright color to your outfit can greatly increase your mood throughout the day. Every time I looked down at my sleeves while sitting through my two and a half hour lecture, I felt a little less bored-to-death.
Try adding a pop of color to break up your striped, or any printed blouse. It helps transition into new seasons, and adds a fun aspect to any look. Don’t be afraid of color! I used to want to only wear neutrals. Where is the fun in that?
Here’s to hoping it gets warmer, sunnier and stays daytime longer very soon! Enjoy your week.
