Swingy Stripes

top (Freebird); tank (Forever21);  jeans (Ernst Sewn); heels (Steven by Steve Madden); bag (Anthropologie); lip stain (Tarte in Spirited); nail polish (Sheswai in Honey Fox)

Stripes, check. Color, check. Waxy jeans that look like leather, check. Leopard heels, check. Bright punchy polish & lips, check, check. These are a few of my favorite things all bundled into one outfit. 

I know horizontal stripes can be unflattering but I think the cut of this top combined with the way it swings cancels out any unflattering that might happen & just makes it cool.  Plus, I love it, so there.

What are your favorite things to wear?

I've got olympics on the brain just like every other person in the world right now. I just can't get enough I find myself mesmerized by sports that I didn't even know were sports (you know what I'm talking about).  I took my Olympic inspiration out for some web browsing window shopping.  I know fall is coming but I can't help wanting some midsummer wardrobe refreshers like these.
