Regardless of the season, and, despite what fashion experts say, stripes are always in style. Spring summer trend reports always predict stripes “coming back”, but if they’re always in season, there’s no reason for a comeback. Stripes don’t make a comeback; they command the room, never stand in the back, and never, ever leave front and center.

If you couldn’t tell, I’m a fan of stripes.

{ Architecture of an Outfit } Stripes are always in style

This striped dress by Butter by Nadia is probably my fave. And the crumb-catcher frilly thing on the neckline? No one else has it.

And the leopard wedges… of course.

I reviewed the dress last year in this article: “Butter By Nadia, The Lulu Dress.” And you’ve seen this dress with neon royal blue tights last Christmas. See? It’s a multi-seasonal wardrobe weapon.
