I don't know what I love more: trench coats or nautical stripes (I professed my love for the latter in the early days of this blog).
Perhaps we will call it equal and leave it that, or better yet, wear them together (sort of like the girl in the 3rd picture, although the 'trench' is not actually represented as a coat); I love wearing my stripes with a white or black, or any other coloured trench coat.
Regardless, this classic was sported beautifully during the SS'11 Fashion Weeks, and I'm not speaking of it being worn on the runway:
This is my absolute favourite way to wear my nautical stripes, with a black blazer & jeans - 3 classics in one outfit = perfection!
Stripes + camel coat = love
Trench + nautical stripes = love love love!
How cool are these Chloe sneakers?!?
And toughened up by another wardrobe staple: the motorcycle leather jacket. I must admit I have never understood (i.e. not been a fan of) the pockets sticking out of micro denim shorts...
Hey C, hows everything going? Oh how I love stripes and those chloe sneakers - i have them in a different colour and they are so comfortable. All leather, even the spongey inner sole.

Katrina K - I'm well, thx! And you? How was your Europe trip? :) I'm insanely jealous of your Chloe sneakers, especially if they're the beige/tan colour combination. Must find myself a pair!
ReplyDeletePret a Porter P - isn't it just? Love it! :)
