Stripey Style



Harper's Bazaar had a quick little note on their "Update Your Look" page, naming Striped Sweaters as a seasonal must-have. For the sake of argument here we're going to assume they mean horizontal stripes (because pinstripes are really the only way to go, vertically, unless you want to look like an escaped convict.. but that's a whole other blog post right there!).

If you're going to go colorful, try to make sure your bright is balanced out by a darker neutral (think Juicy's Striped Cardi as opposed to... Where's Waldo?). Thicker stripes tend to be more casual looking, so if you're going out, try something like Majestic's Cashmere Blend Striped Turtleneck.

And whatever you do, don't buy into the 'horizontal stripes make you look fat' nonsense. It's all in how you wear it, and the cut and quality of the shirt. You're on your own when it comes to working it, but we've definitely got some great tools for you to work with!
