Carol Marie “Drop Earrings” (in brass) / ADAM Blazer / Joie Top / Urban Outfitters Shorts / Tory Burch “Lucian Crochet Wedges” (gift) / Coach Boyfriend Bracelet / Metallic Bracelets (bought from a shop in Point Reyes)
For my trip out West, I packed a few pairs of shorts, a ton of striped tops and a handful of light jackets. While digging through my suitcase one evening, I saw these two striped gems lying side by side and immediately saw a match made in heaven: stripes on stripes! You can imagine my delight to double up on this beloved pattern.
The cherry on the sunday was this blazer, which has become my new favorite go-to piece whenever I need a light jacket to throw on in the evenings. I love that it’s made of linen, so it’s light weight, but still lends itself as a sophisticated piece due to it’s structured fit, and rich, rusty copper hue. xoxo

Ha! I can totally relate to your finding of stripes on stripes (I swear I put more outfits together when I’m putting laundry away…)
You wear stripes really well! Great look!

I myself tried stripes on stripes and I wasn’t sure if I loved it but I love this! I think I’ll have to try it again.

Love the double stripes! I am always telling my clients to try to layer prints, and here is a perfect example of how well it really can work. You look fab… :) I adore a good blazer, too!

What a beautiful blazer! I’m a new follower, and so far, this trip down ‘my style pill’ lane has been absolutely great… :)

I can’t believe you are able to discover new outfits in your suitcase on a trip! That’s some styling and closet building talent! P.S. Love those shorts!

Hey Christine.
Loving the stripes on stripes combo in this outfit! You’re braver than I am, but now I’m definitely interested in trying this out for myself. You look amazing — and should definitely consider submitting this outfit to The Wear To Go Girls FB page for their “Look of the Week”!!

You look beautiful! I LOVE Taht Adam blazer, remember seeing it on shopbop months ago and coveted that baby hardcore. The cherry lips go GREAT with the colors here.
