HORIZONTAL STRIPES

Horizontal Stripes by lafemmekatrina featuring GAP accessories

Horizontal stripes are usually part of every seasons trend. My favorite - grey stripes. They're less harsh than black on white and don't look as mime-ey.

Another one of my favorites - jumpers, or summer dresses that can be used as a jumper. Layering a black top underneath extends the life of the dress.

Dress 1: These stripes are more bold, so I kept the top simple and added matte yellow tights for excitement. Black open toe-d pumps finish this look.

Dress 2: Here the stripes are softer, so I used a shirt with more character, and some floral tights to add some texture. Pastel pink open toe-d pumps keep this look from pushing the edge too far. The shoes in with the soft grey and the femininity of the top and tights.

Dress 3: This dress has more design elements in addition to the stripes so I kept it simple with a plain black turtleneck and matte black tights. Fuchsia pumps bring some interest in the lower half of the body.
