WIWW – Summer Floral & Stripes
There is just something about a good striped dress that makes me happy!
I found this dress at the Gap last season and fell quickly in love. It is perfect for the office layered with a cardigan.

Last season I would not have been brave enough to pair the stripes with floral shoes but I’m feeling much braver this season. These shoes have quickly become a favorite and really add some interest to the same old outfit.

Pockets…..give me all the pockets! I love pockets and would probably have them on just about every piece of clothing I own if possible. I think it comes from being a tad introverted most of my life and it gave me something to do with my hands when standing around in a group.
This dress is several seasons old from Loft but I’m still just as crazy about it as I was on day one! I think this was the beginning of my realization that an A-line dress was the best fit for my 40-something figure.

Of course the Kimberly necklace and my Star Mela clutch definitely make it a little more fun.
This clutch was definitely a price per wear purchase! I have been planning outfits around it ever since I purchased. It is just the perfect summer accessory.

Sleeveless in Texas is always a plus!
Are you comfortable with mixing patterns? I have always been a “matchy, matchy” girl so this really took some time for me to be brave enough to try. Now I’m afraid I may take it a little too far sometimes but I do think this combo works perfectly.
Here are a few other fun striped dresses perfect for summer!
