Get The Look: Statement Stripes

Fashion Mar 30, 2015

Nautical, Monochromatic And More!

It’s raining stripes! From black and white to fresh Spring hues, stripes are another hot trend that you can adopt from the runway and incorporate into your daily wear. Classic zebra and nautical stripes were hot and heavy on the ramp. With a hint of colour, you can add a burst of fresh spring stripes into your wardrobe. This trend isn't going anywhere, so you may as well have fun with it while it's around.

Sleek

Ted Baker’s Salsah Ottoman knit crop top is a must-have piece. The navy blue top fits snuggly around the torso to give you a lean and sleek silhouette. Let this shapely number be your spring secret.

Monochromatic

A sharp, monochrome striped blazer will keep you looking like boss lady all day long. Add this Jane Norman fresh fitted blazer right into your spring wardrobe for some much-needed power play.
$104 CDN

Flirty

Tease 'em in a figure-hugging striped skirt. This Rodarte striped thigh-high mini will get his attention for sure.
$287.68 CDN

Traditional

Being on-trend doesn't mean you have to give up the traditional. At the recent Lakme Fashion Week, Mandira Bedi introduced her line of saris, and the Beige Banarasi sari with neatly gathered orange and yellow stripes was one hot number.
$355 CDN

Peppy

Of course, a fusion of colourful stripes screams "spring is here and ready to play." Kate Spade’s Cedar Street Stripe Maise is a great carry-on bag for the office or a fun day out with the gals.
$350 CDN

Metallic

Put some spring in your step with these J. Crew Metallic Stripe pumps. The black and gold mashup makes these pumps a perfect option for a special evening out and about town.
$190 CDN

Nautical

Juicy Couture’s Striped Heart necklace is a nautical-inspired piece that features a rope-like chain. It's a top accessory trend this season.
$77 CDN

Classic

Scarves are the perfect accessory to complete your look. You could go for stripes that match your outfit or you could go for peppy colours that will stand out from your outfit. This J Crew classic stripe scarf is my go-to option.
$125 CDN
