The short of it

You've already seen the long, and I know, would it kill me to actually come up with a new outfit once in a while? I just get on these kicks and I can't seem to shake them.

This is also a problem that comes from my refusal to stop buying the same thing over and over again. This is really bad when it comes to stripes. So as the owner of a wide striped maxi dress, mini skirt and blazer, you are just going to have to be subjected to seeing me reincarnate the same look until I tire of it. Someday. Eventually. Maybe.

    If it works, I say keep it going! Love this outfit...the combo of the tighter stripes and the casual chambray shirt...perfection. Great additions with the green sandals and cool belt!

    Seriously who will tire of your stripes? Certainly not I! This outfit has a nice chic-ness to it and is making me want to go out on the one denim shirt I have before fall sets in. Great outfit and wow Peanut is so cute I would have taken him home.

    i felt shamed a few weeks back bc i felt distressed that i desperately wanted to buy a pair of grey snakeskin embossed heels. "i don't have anything like them, except my nearly identical grey heels that aren't embossed." seriously- i need to check myself sometimes. and i need that dog cause i definitely don't have anything like him! :)

    Oh what a cute little fluffball! Yeah stripes are great, I've got to get more of them. Also, that belt is so cool and definitely looks like Ralph Lauren Black Label right now. I like to torture myself by going to see it... belts start around $700 hahahahha

    I totally know what you mean. Once I find a style/shade that I like...I refuse to stray from it. I've literally bought so many olive green staple pieces that my friends refuse to let me purchase anymore. Loving these photos...you can't go wrong with stripes!!

    I think you better delete this post from Chloe - she might get Peanut jealous.
    AND I can take all the stripes. I too have sinned: striped blazer, striped cardigan, striped dress, striped top, striped blazer, striped shoes. GOD I hope this trend lasts forever.
