Helping women love what they wear on a budget

Stripes for Spring

April 5, 2017 by Katie Haller

I love the in-between seasons of Spring and Fall.  The weather is perfect for putting outfits together because it’s not too hot and it’s not too cold.  I am really loving all the spring trends that I’m seeing this year, however, I haven’t had the opportunity to do very much shopping lately, so I’ve been shopping my own closet to see what I can find for some spring looks.  
If you follow my looks on my blog or on Instagram, you already know that I have a bit of a stripe obsession.  I just love stripes, especially black and white.  I just can’t get away from stripes whenever I go on a shopping trip.  That’s why today I figured that I would go ahead and share some ways that I’m wearing stripes this spring.

For my first look, I wore a simple black and white t-shirt with my white pants, wedge sandals and accessorized with a turquoise pendant necklace.  I love how the white pants and wedges help add that pop of spring into the look.

For my next look, I again wore another black and white t-shirt.  I styled it with black jeggings and a denim jacket.  I accessorized with a statement necklace and ankle booties.  To add a pop of spring colors, I used my coral coach purse.

For my last stripe look, I wore my striped long sleeve dress and denim jacket.  I accessorized with my turquoise bead necklace and some cognac color wedge sandals that I thrifted from the Goodwill.

In my opinion, stripes are always in season.  How will you be wearing stripes this spring?
