Yikes. Stripes!

One of my hands-down favorite trend right now is stripes. I've been wearing stripes on my clothes (and decorating with them in my home) for years. They are undeniably preppy, fresh, and just make you want to smile. From crisp men's suiting, to boatneck tees, to tote bags....there's nothing the mighty stripe can't do.
