Sail into Style with Stripes

We all have our go-to patterns or signature styles that we can never seem to have too much of, right? Well, striped clothing is by far one of my favorite things to buy. I can't even begin to count the number of striped shirts, sweaters, shoes, and dresses that have made a home in my closet throughout the years.

With the vast variations of the classic crisp nautical look, stripes can be sexy, preppy, or just plain fun!

I normally don't like stripes, since I'm curvy, but I'm digging that pink dress!!!

I don't have a ton of striped stuff... maybe two shirts. I think my closet go-to is white and black. I love the red and blue dress.
