Creative Closet: Sassy Stripes

March 31, 2015

Sometimes, you nail every photo.  You can’t narrow down the awesome shots, so you include all the pics.  And other times, your camera won’t focus, it’s getting too dark and lightening them just makes them grainy, and you’re lucky you have four photos.

Guess which kind of week this is?

But I really like stripes and I love this dress from Express and I couldn’t not share a little something for The Creative Closet today.

Here’s a rough idea of the outfit:

The Creative Closet: Stripes are where it's at! I love this dress from Express layered with tights and sneakers for a casual look.

Chloe and Isabel Heirloom Chain + Pavé Convertible Necklace Stripes, polka dots, and Converse sneakers. Dressed down cuteness!

I’m still into mixing patterned / bold tights with patterned / bold dresses, so I thought this was the perfect combo.  Stripes, polka dots, and Converse sneakers.  Can’t get much better than this.  I wore it to work last week with my favorite tan booties, but I just wore them last week, so I dressed it down with sneakers.

Dress: Express
Necklace: Chloe and Isabel
Cuff bracelets: Studebaker Metals
Tights: I forget!
Shoes: Converse

How do you wear your stripes?

    Your converse!!!!!!!!!!!!! Eeeek!

    You are adorable, as always. I had bit plans for this prompt, but I’ve been so sick with allergies I didn’t get to take any photos. Blah.

      Thank you! You should see my shoe collection (especially if you’re in awe of the volume of my makeup haha).

      Ugh, I hope the allergies lighten up soon for you!

    Super cute! I love it with the converse! I wore a lot of stripes paired with plaid in the Fall but now I’m getting into a stripes/leopard and stripes/floral phase. lol! I think stripes just look good with everything

    • Angelica @GardeningInHighHeels

      Thank you! I loved the dressed down version much better than the work version now that I see it in pictures. I love stripes with anything, too! I think next week’s prompt is florals – that’s my version of spring (I don’t do pastels really). You should link up if you can!

    The sneaks are the icing on the cake! Plus polka dots and stripes? I just LOVE it all. So perfect.

    • Angelica @GardeningInHighHeels

      Thanks, Meghan! It’s an outfit I’ve worn but with different shoes – they really are the icing on the cake!

  • Nadia

    So cute! The converse are so unexpected but they totally work – amazing!

    • Angelica @GardeningInHighHeels

      Thank you! I’m loving how unexpectedly well they work here too!
