Striping

Thankfifi- Topshop stripe wrap top & navy culottes

Hey hey Monday and new stripes.  Shocking I know.  What is it about stripes?  My print of choice; only rivalled by leopard and probably not really considered a print at all by many…  But I am always drawn to them.  When I shop online I use the search box – as soon as I hit the ‘s’, the computer gremlins autofill ‘stripe’ – it seems I am so predictable even the internet knows me this well by now.  But there is a fine line between predictability and honing one’s own style… and with these guys being diagonal I shall choose to file them in the ‘style’ category.  Don’t challenge me ok?

So my dinner date look last week started with the stripes, swiftly followed by the extra wide legs (actually I’ve had these for quite a while, see here, and whilst they were quite ridiculous 18 months ago, not that I cared, it seems now they are smack on trend – it’s true what mum says – if you keep something long enough…) and completed with my BFF, the peachy number.

My date was with Arcadia, mother of Topshop, and so it seems only right to share a little collection of my top picks du jour…  have a scroll… stripes and lace-ups to go pleeease…

Dinner was rather delicious and with a side dish sighting of Katie Price, whom I did not recognise, and following a conversation about current tv, about which I knew nada, I drew the conclusion that my pop culture needs some work…  or am I safer swimming in my blissfully ignorant wardrobe of stripes?
