A BLAST FROM THE PAST: Stripes Are Back

Pinstripes, thin stripes, black stripes, white stripes, all stripes have made their way back into mainstream fashion with a bold new twist.

As this old school trend burst back onto the Spring/Summer 2013 fashion scene, there has been many tweaks and adjustments made to the world renowned jailhouse stripes.

The colors are bolder, the stripes are longer, some are even tie-dyed. Yes, I said tie-dyed! The game of stripes has gone to the next level.


Ladies, this is a trend that knows no size, age, or race. Wearing stripes properly from YOUR body type will require playing around with different patterns and textures, so that the stripes are complimentary to your figure and not unflattering.

Speaking of which, shoes, hats, purses, and swimwear are also getting in on the stripe trend.


Another bold twist on the stripes are color blocking. Adding color to black and white stripes will make a vivid fashion statement. Mixing and matching patterns with stripes is great way to stand out as well.


No matter how you choose to rock your stripes this upcoming Spring/Summer season, just make sure that you are caught ROCKING the stripes right!
