Sequins and Stripes


There's nothing like nautical stripes and sparkles for summer! Seriously, here's an easy recipe to heat up your outfits: Take a simple tee and add a sequin skirt. Or pair a striped top with floral shorts or a pair of jeans. The look is classic, but still charming and cheerful. Want some more inspiration? Check out this Sequins and Stripes board on Pinterest!

How do you wear sequins and stripes? Do you pair the two?



SKIRT: H&M, TOP: H&M, SHOES: Coach, BAG: H. Stern for Diane von Furstenberg EARRINGS: The Fashion Truck BRACELETS: Purchased in Dublin, c/o Stella & Dot WATCH: Michael Kors SUNGLASSES: H&M

  1. I haven't actually pair sequins and stripes yet (embarrassed!)
    I love how you styled yours :)
    I also really like that you wear a gorgeous and classic wedding band instead of a band/engagement ring. I'm in the process of trying find something and was wondering if any women just go with a pretty band instead of a solitaire. Is that what you did?

    1. Hi Georgina! I wear my engagement ring on my right hand, and just the plain band on my left. They look too "bling" together for my tastes! When are you getting married???

    I did well on the ring, eh? I love the classic band look, personally.

    Gorgeous photos and styling as always, love.
