Black and White Striped Dress With Red Shoes

Hello Ladies

How is your week going? I have been pretty busy. Doc's visits, cleaning, blog work, etc..I have been walking with hubby and the pups reguraly on the greenways that we have near our house. I enjoy walking, except when it is nearly 90 degrees. We have had a bit of a heat wave here in Charlotte, where there have been a few days in the high 80s to 90s. I am not a fan! Would like a fan.. just not one.  Today my hair will be trimmed/cut and there will be a glaze/wash on it as I think about in the future possibly getting a LONG, angled bob. I dont know. I am always afraid to cut too much and seem to go through this each summer when the hair sticks to the back of one's head and the only hairstyles seem to be "the bun" or " the ponytail".  I like the chignon, so I just need to look up ideas for styling in the heat. I don't think it will be anytime soon. Just a consideration.

Anyhow, I am here to show you my find from White House Black Market. I think I own one striped shirt, one striped jacket. Not many stripes. However, I find that if I like the cut of the striped dress, or some other unique quality in a striped skirt, it might attract me more. I have an Ann Taylor striped skirt I will wear more on here that I love. The stripes on the side of the skirt come in at an angle, and the middle outwards are straight. Love this cut, as it narrows the hip and just adds more visual interest.

This dress from WHBM was a mere $15 and like new, bought on Poshmark. I liked the material, made well and the details of the silver buttons at the waist, giving it more definition. That seems to be how it works with Stripes and I. I added my Zara red croc block strappy heels, and my Kate Spade beau bag in black. Just a pop of color and a red lip will be just right for today.

Do you wear many stripes? If you don't why?

Still a few days left to win a pair of shoes from JAMBU. CLICK HERE.

Outfit: White House Black Market dress: Poshmark, Shoes Zara, Necklace Zara, Bag; Kate Spade Beau Bag.

Have a great day,

Stop by tomorrow for the Fashion Challenge I did at the Concord Mills Mall.
