I get questions every week about how to wear stripes.   I have done a lot of research myself so I wanted to share a simple tips.  

-Incorporate your stripes as a layering piece whether it's a stripe jacket, scarf or a tank this serves as a great accent for a simple outfit!

-Vertical stripes will always make you look taller and slimmer.

- To add more volume you can add draped stripes because it will make the area look larger.

- When stripes are large, they add a casual vibe to sportswear, so be sure to keep your accessories minimal as the oversized stripe is the focal point!

-Wear stripes with stripes that are similar colors or patterns. - It makes a funky look only if the stripes are similar!

-My favorite way to wear stripes is with tons of white.  My favorite pairing example would be a white/ navy stripe tunic with white jeans for timelessly chic look.

I have a lot of great examples in the store right now of successful stripe outfits, stop in and we can show you more how to wear them with your body type.

Have  a great day!

Well here it is, Monday.. okay so I know we are all tired and you may ask yourself why? I slept for ten hours last night after eating a bowl of chocolate pretzel Ice Cream! Well it's just called the case of the Monday's/ mind over matter, paint your own picture. Imagine it's Friday and you're about to board a private jet to Cebu Island!!

My item of the day must be these multi color bangles. Lately I've been on a budget, so I won't be able to buy clothes for myself for the next.. I can't even bear to say it!! Anyways what will get me through will be the little things! Check out these multi color bangles, they can be found at Pieces boutique for $18.00 , and be dressed up or down.. with Jeans and a white tank or with a cocktail dress, you can separate them and mix with other bangles if it's too much bangle for you!
