FOCUS ON: BLACK AND WHITE STRIPES


The next "focus on" is all about stripes. And not just any stripes but black and white stripes. I totally love such pattern and I think it looks great on elegant and casual clothes. So as always I went for a little hunt to find the best black and white striped pieces.

Lenor Striped Oversized Asymmetric Blouse - I love oversized clothes, they make me feel unbelievably comfortable and even though they don't always look great on me, I just can't stop loving them. I actually own very similar shirt but instead of black, mine has navy stripes and is slightly less oversized. I think I would definitely love this Misguided one more!

Motel Kadie High Waist Skater Skirt in Black and White Stripe - I've probably mentioned this thousand times but I'm gonna say it one more time: I love skater skirts. And the one I've chosen here looks amazing with the striped print. It's probably a little bit too short for me but I'd just add a pair of black thighs and I'd be good to go.

Motel Penny Smock Dress With Bold Stripe - Now that is what I call a perfect dress. It has a great smock shape which I think looks good on everyone. I really love how horizontal and vertical stripes are combined, it makes the dress look far more interesting.

Motel Stripe Pleated Skirt - This skirt is probably my favourite thing in this post. Isn't it amazing? Even more than the striped print I love its pleated shape and those cute little buttons on the front. PERFECT

Karen Millen Soft Graphic Stripe Sleeveless Shirt - Here's another black and white (more like gray and white actually) striped shirt which I really like. I like its dipped hem and the black collar. It also has a very interesting back (you can see it on asos.com by clicking the name of the shirt above).

Motel Mizzy Denim Hot Pants in Black Pinstripe - This is my second favourite piece here. I love how high waisted shorts look like and I think these stripes make a person look slimmer. I also really love the fact that black stripes are way wider than white stripes as I'm more of a black person than white person when it comes to clothes.

Do you like wearing black and white stripes? Which one of these is your favourite?

  3. I am a stripes girl when it comes to clothes and i must confess that i own too many of the same styles :) However, i do not own that many black and white stripes because i haven't found any designs which tickles my fancy..or it looks like the Zara uniform. I really adore the Karen Millen sleeveless shirt because I like the black collar.

    Thanks for sharing~ Have a nice day <3

  7. Stripes are always so classic and cool and easy to throw on, and the black and white makes it even more striking. I really like the styling of all of these pieces, but the first oversized blouse in particular!
