OOTD: Black & White Stripes & Tomato

black and white striped shirt c/o, black skinnies, bag
 Give me stripes somewhere in my outfit, and I'm a happy girl. Black and white stripes? Even better.






How about some cute elbow patches?


Maybe some pops of color? 



Or my favorite addition to any outfit: Charlie!


The 6 year old I nanny for and I were going over the parts of speech yesterday 
while she was being nosey and going through pics on my phone. 
I had her describe this outfit using adjectives. 
She said, "Black, white, stripes, red." 
I told her to think of creative adjectives and she said, "Black and white stripes and TOMATO." 





More striped faves from SheIn: red & white stripes, white black long loose tee, black white elbow patch--currently on sale!


Are you a fan of stripes?

  2. I think I probably have 10 striped tops in my closet! You can never go wrong with a cute striped top, and this one is so cute with the elbow patch detail.

  3. Just gorgeous!!! I love the elbow patches! Stripes are my favorite too, always have been. If you take a picture of me now and one from high school I have the same style lol! I have seen several bloggers share things from SheIn, how do their sizes run? I want an honest answer! I feel like most say "true to size" but I want to hear it from someone I trust :)

  55. So simple yet so chic. I love a good striped tee, even better if it has elbow patches. The 6 year old is smart. Those pops of tomato red are gorgeous and even Charlie is matching with his scarf. :-)
