Summer and stripes make for a Parisian nautical look. I’ve always loved the classic black and white stripes, so I’m the hunt for some new summer striped clothes. I personally like thin stripes over the thicker ones because they have a more classic look. The chunkier stripes do remind me of the 60’s and that’s an era I adore but you just see it everywhere these days. Here’s me in a vintage stripes but I’m dreaming of some new ones.
When I think of classic black and white stripes what comes to mind is an odd individual with a unique fashion sense, like a mime in Paris. Although I do love stripes I do not know how to mime, there’s an idea though. So I found a couple of pieces I am eyeing for the summer that will give me and you if you want, the nautical parisian summer look without a beret.
First is the Dahlia Striped full belted dress from Asos. Its summer elegance in a simple dress and the vertical and horizontal stripes make it a stand out. The gold buttons on the back and gold belt embellishment make it easy to dress up.
