TRENDWATCH: HOW TO STYLE STRIPES

Balmain Resort 2013

THE ARE EVERYWHERE!! (insert horror movie voice). this optical illusion trend, that has recycled itself in fashion twenty million times is back again! as a long time stripe lover, this really comes in handy, as i don’t really need to buy any new pieces in order to be one of the cool stripe kids. anyway, here’s how i’d pair stripes items…

1) Pairing stripes with minimalist, clean items is my favorite. either with a white buttoned up blouse or a boyfriend trenchcoat.

2) Another cool way is to crash the conservative striped top with a pair of denim DIY shorts. When wearing flared striped pants a tighter top / jacket in a different color makes an amazing look.

3) Personally this look would work the best for me: vertically striped jeans, a pair of flatforms, a leather top and some nice accessories such as bordeaux nail polish, snapback hat and leather clutch.

you might have noticed that i’ve been inspired by street style lately. i did a research for school and went through so many books, many of them on this topic. right now i am really craving all of these items. one of them is on the way to me… can you guess which one?

ps: don’t even try guessing that it’s the 800€ watch.
