OOTD: Mr. Stripes


Hi, we're M + K and we're Stripe-aholics. There, we've said it. We have no self control whatsoever when it comes to stripes! We have quite a collection, but we don't think it will stop growing anytime soon. We've put a ban on purchasing any stripes, but when they are such an effortless and easy to style print, it's pretty darn hard not to give in. Especially in cooler months when stores seem to be stripes galore, you're bound to catch us in a stripey sweater or sleeved top every odd day.
Here is a snap from the other day starring yours truly, Mr Stripes! When we're going for a casual and comfy look, we prefer to keep accessories to a minimal, and stripes let you get away with this! They require close to no styling and are perfect for those "oh-no-I-should-have-been-out-the-door-30minutes-ago" mornings.

  2. That's just the kind of gorgeous, casual look that I never seem to be able to pull off! You look absolutely great, especially for the transition into Autumn!

    1. We're sure you can Candy! It is perfect for transitioning into Autumn or for us transitioning into Spring where it still gets a bit chilly here and there :)

  3. Stripes are a classic! Gotta love them. And I have way too many plaid flannels. It's an addiction. So I know the feeling! XD

    1. Plaid flannels are the perfect go to piece when you just want to throw something on, but still look like you've put effort into it! We only have one, but we have worn it to death, so we might have to take your lead and pick up some more :)

  4. Hello, my name is Elle and I am a fellow stripe-ahollic.

    I have been for a very long time. It came to such a problematic point that I had no other patterns (or lack of patterns, for that matter) other than stripes in my wardrobe. Those were very difficult times.......

    But you know, stripes. So classic. So easy. How can you not?? Right....?

  8. My anorak has served me well this season too. I probably wear it a bit too much but it's so comfy
