made for stripes

January 14, 2013

It's hard to say no to stripes, especially in the ever-so-versatile black & white combo. I fell in love with this dress at Madewell, knowing it would be perfect year-round. Since it's been a lot colder recently {37 degrees this weekend which is crazy for LA!}, I layered this button-up underneath. Polka dots, sigh, something else I can't say no to!
dress c/o Madewell, shirt c/o Madewell {in stores}, jacket Madewell {old}, bag Brahmin, shoes Sole Society, necklace J.Crew {similar}, watch Timex, bracelet Banana Republic {similar}, hair clip ban.do

I hope you all had a great weekend!
