STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Summer Street Style Stripes

Although fall is soon approaching, we are still in that awkward time gap where it is too hot to pull out of our favorite boyfriend jeans and booties.  As we can see in these photos, this Fashionista has managed to stay cool, but also still fashionable and on trend for one of the last summer days.

We have continually seen stripes on the runway in the past and in almost every store imaginable, and I don’t think anyone is complaining! Striped clothing pieces are a classic look that every Fashionista should have in his or her closet.  These pieces are usually easy to throw on and perfect for everyday wear. I would recommend splurging on one more expensive striped shirt because it will definitely become one of the most worn pieces in your closet.

I love how this Fashionista added her accessories without overdoing the look with multiple colors.  She sticks with a black fringe bag, black sandals and silver jewelry, which makes the striped shirt stand out. I believe the best thing to do with stripes is to keep everything else simple since some may find stripes to be a bit overwhelming.

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “I think stripes can be extremely versatile and can be paired with almost anything, even with the most unpredictable weather.  I have worn this shirt with jeans and a leather jacket for going out or shorts and sandals for class. Everyone needs a striped shirt in their closet: a perfect essential!”
