STYLE GURU STYLE: Pinstripes

May 20th, 2015 at 2:10am

My closet is full of black and white with different accents of colors in between. This spring, I have been trying to mix in traditional pieces to create outfits that are new and fun. Black and white stripes have been, and always will be, a classic in the fashion world. Taking inspiration from brands like Altuzarra to come up with different ways to wear stripes, I created this outfit. This collection encompassed many different ways to wear stripes and patterns while remaining modern and interesting.

In taking on this trend, I chose to stick to a basic look. I stuck to black and white instead of adventuring into the colors seen in this collection. Wearing my white jeans was a great idea because they are perfect for the bright and warm weather of spring. I paired my high neckline tank top to bring in a hint of the classic stripes.

This silver, layered chain necklace added more detail to the outfit. I added my own personal touch with my black stud and chain gladiator sandals. These sandals pull my outfit together while adding more interest and texture. I always bring out these sandals when wearing basic outfits to make the ensemble fun and exciting. I paired my everyday rings and black Michael Kors watch to bring the ensemble together.

My ensemble is perfect for dressing up for class, going out with friends or for a warm spring day!

Get My Look: 1. Black and white striped shirt. 2. White jeans. 3. Gladiator sandals.
