    So nice. I’m also a fan of stripes (I have three striped dresses and I think I could compete with Liz Lemon on the amount of horizontally striped shirts in my wardrobe) . . . but the striped skirts I’ve seen have always had too-small/too-close stripes, which to me create a “bumble bee butt” effect.

    These stripes are just right . ..

    I’m a huge fan of black and white stripes! I like the pairings. I especially love the cat ring and Kate Spade shoes!

    Love that skirt! I wish I could rock the pencil skirts, but alas, I look like a sausage in them. A-line or bust for me!

    You always look great in that style. I’m a little jealous. :) Love the textures on that necklace!

    Cute outfit. I especially like that clutch, but the “dry clean only” on the skirt doesn’t work for me.

    Oh, I was missing your style posts! I think I have too much black/white stripe stuff in my closet to get yet another thing but this outfit is really adorable. I am in love with the linen t-shirt (I wish more people would make them – I love the texture). Funny that today I’m wearing a B&W polka dot skirt that I think I could substitute in this outfit. :)

    I wore fake glasses for a while because I so desperately wanted to be able to change up my look. No one at my office had a clue. They just told me that I should wear glasses more often! Might try again with those frames you picked…

      That’s funny! They do sell those glasses without prescription lenses, you know…

    Love the skirt. I bought several of these skirts from Old Navy this summer, and the quality is amazing. The price is too.

    I have a million billion of those skirts from Old Navy. Sometimes you can find a real gem there, and this is one.
