Stripes on stripes

It is no secret that I am a little obsessed with stripes as shown here, here and here.  I have however never styled an entire outfit out of my favourite print. 

I really like the effect of combining stripes of varying thicknesses to achieve a contrasting yet put together look. A pop of colour in one striped piece when combined with a classic black or navy stripe also adds a fun edge to an outfit. 

Here are a few outfits I could see myself wearing this spring/summer. A few pieces such as the Dotti Ava Tie Front Tee and Forever New Freya Classic Stripe Skirt are definitely on my wish list.

Forever New Brigitte Bandeau Top

Dotti Ava Tie Front Tee
Dotti Ponti Mini Stripe Tube (also in Black/Blue)
Topshop Half Sleeve Stripe Slash Neck Top
Topshop Tab Sleeve Stripe Top
Forever New Freya Classic Stripe Skirt
