Stripes & Nudes

Yes, stripes and nudes are two of my favorite things! I LOVE a good striped top and nude shoes are my life. Nude shoes elongate your legs people, everyone should have a FEW pairs. As for stripes, while they have always been a classic, I find that these days they are being incorporated in more trendy ways which is fun to take inspiration from.

For example this outfit, by amazing blogger Blair of Atlantic-Pacific...layering can be such a game changer with the items in your wardrobe. I'm guilty of not taking advantage as much as I should, but Blair's latest outfit post gives me some new fresh inspiration.

I also am in love with this striped dress from Banana Republic. You ALL would never guess how flattering it is on, it makes your waist look tiny! I haven't pulled the trigger yet, but Banana is offering 30% off all full-priced purchases with code BRTHANKS so maybe it's time? Although, HOLD UP, it's already on sale so pick this up and then treat yourself to something else that is full-priced, I mean your saving $$$ anyway, right?

Back to the nudes, these ballet flats from Cole Haan have been on my Pinterest for a LONG while. Such a classic, I know anyone would get miles of wear out of these. They can also be yours after taking 25% off with code EVENT25.
