I'm totally, completely, head over heels, in love with..stripes! Always have, always will be. If you looked in my closet you'd see that many of my shirts have stripes on them. In the hopes of not dressing in a uniform everyday {eek high school flashbacks}, I like ones with varying widths and colors. This one is absolutely perfect because it's pink and has sequins on it! woo hoo!





top J. Crew, shorts Banana Republic, shoes Tory Burch, necklace Elephantine, bracelets Seasonal Whispers from Matthew! bag borrowed by Le Mode Accessories
Le Mode Accessories is one of my new sponsors and they carry some absolutely adorable items, like this Traveling Paths Handbag. It's name is fitting since it's been on one crazy journey. The bag has been to Elaine already and now it's on it's way to Sydney, and then off to a few other bloggers. I'm jealous of this trip it gets to go on! The bag is so stylish and roomy and I think I need one just like it for Italy!

ReplyDeleteThat bag is divine!
ReplyDeleteI feel like I say this all the time AND I do .... GORGEOUS!
ReplyDeleteYou do look amazing in stripes! I wore some today on the blog but I don't feel like I pull them off that well.
ReplyDeleteBut I love the details of this post- the way your shirt is tucked in for one. It's the small things that add character to your blog.
i'm just so obsessed with stripes. and your look is adorable! i think it's the shorts that win me over- yay for spring!!
ReplyDeleteStripes are such a chic classic! Where is that ring from? It's pretty darn amazing.

ReplyDeleteEternally yours,
Stephanie
I love the layout of your blog :) it's adorable! and every year, when spring arrives I feel a sudden love for stripes too, they match the season so well :) x
ReplyDeleteI think you could justify a bag purchase for your Honeymooon...I mean, who knows what little touristy things you'll find?!
ReplyDeleteI guess it's hot enough where you are to wear shorts....Grr.
Cute necklace! Can't quite tell what shape it is...but from afar it's nice.
Another beautiful outfit as always, Mara. I swear sometimes I want you to be my everyday style advisor guru.
ReplyDeleteI love stripes! The sequins look so different and feminine, though! That bag looks like it could hold everything. I want it!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your sweet little striped top -- it's so pretty and chic! And that bag is gorgeous; it's so big and classic.
