Striped Basics

I love finding a great new piece to add to my wardrobe. It’s fun to wear something new! At the same time, there is nothing like pulling out one of your favorite items that you have had for years. Something you know you can rely on when you need an outfit. The always reliable, always fits item that will never let you down. A striped dress is definitely one of those items. 

This dress is several years old but still one of my favorites. I’ve worn it to work, brunch, church, showers and out to run errands and I always get compliments on it. It also works for any season. I’ve styled it here to wear now in the summer. In the winter I add tights, boots and a jacket to battle the cold air. The key to it’s versatility is the fabric. The ponte knit fabric is light but nice enough for it to be dressed up. It is also a super flattering fabric that fits well. Since this dress is old, I’ve found similar dresses here, here and here.
