Crazy for Stripes!

I love stripes. I always have. In the past, I couldn't resist the allure of stripes, so I bought plenty of striped items - dresses, cardigans, tanks... but then I tended to shy away from wearing them. I was nervous about wearing horizontal stripes - you know the bad rep they sometimes have! Last summer, I decided that because I am so consistently drawn to stripes, I would embrace them - and its been a love affair ever since.

I love to wear stripes in spring and summer - they remind me of hot summer days, laying on the beach, spending the day on the boat...

Here are my current picks for the best of stripes!


1. Anthropologie Transverse Bikini, $68 top, $68 bottom, available here.

2. Anthropologie Sea Stripes Bikini, $128 top, $128 bottom (cute, albeit insanely overpriced), available here.

3. Anthropologie Between the Line Bikini, $78 top, $78 bottom, (my pick), available here.

These Anthro bikinis are adorable, but expensive, and something I'd definitely wait for a sale on!

Warning: stripes sometimes look extremely wonky on computer screens. You need to click on the links and zoom in to see what they really look like! And, these obviously are NOT meant to be worn all together. ;)

I hope all these stripes don't make you dizzy! Do you love stripes, too?
