Hey! How are You?
Are ready for
another style session? Let’s talk stripes!
I don’t know if you’ve heard, but
there’s this saying going around that horizontal stripes make us look bigger,
wider….I don’t agree! Here’s why. Medium-sized
horizontal stripes are flattering for those with full, voluptuous hips and for those
who do not have full, voluptuous hips. The stripes can accentuate your
waistline or even give the illusion of a waistline.
Who came up with that myth
about horizontal stripes then?! Probably the same person who told us not to
wear white after Labor Day!!! Bye!
If you are more conservative with
your clothes, maybe stripes, or any print, is not something you typically wear,
but you want to add something different to your wardrobe. Let’s say you buy
that horizontal striped dress you’ve been eyeing. To soften the stripes, you can
throw a belt on with it to break the stripes up. If you have a striped top and
skirt, pair that outfit with a jacket or cardigan, which will also soften the
stripes for you. You can always pair a solid color top with your striped skirt
or solid color skirt with your striped top.
Moral of the story, you can wear
the stripes!!!
Check out my Youtube video where I
show styling examples when wearing stripes.
P.S. Keep your style questions coming!
I love them!
