Buildable Wardrobe Update: Stripes

Stripes and denim

I finally admitted to myself that I have an addiction to black and white stripes. Anybody else? Maybe just me? It’s just that they are so easy to work with, timeless, and really fun to layer. So when I saw this dress from Anthropologie, I decided it was time to use the last of a gift card I was holding onto. (It’s also nursing friendly which is always a plus!) Here is another similar option for half the price. These are just a few ways I styled the dress in varying temps, but expect this to be a repeat offender in the coming months. All pieces featured are from my #BuildableWardrobe…

Denim Vest
Wedge Booties (similar option)
Bucket Tote
Triple layered Necklace

Stripes and sweaters oversized cardi | In Honor of Design Black white and grey

Dress
Ankle Boots or Backless booties
Oversized Sweater (similar)
Similar Black Clutches

There is such a wide range of stripes, but right now I am sticking to thin black and white. So what do you say? How would you style the dress? And in case you missed, the reason I am trying to be a conscious consumer, and live more minimally.

I second this! I buy so many black and white striped pieces of clothing it’s almost silly. Yet, I keep doing it. My thought is that black and white stripes are classy and (largely) timeless. Basically the best duo when it comes to clothing.
