Streamlined stripes

I'm making an effort to give items I don't often wear a chance by purposely building an outfit around them, like this sleeveless blouse. I thought the stripes and colour scheme called for a modern, streamlined look. I added a black pencil skirt with exposed zipper, simple black envelope purse, wedge sandals with bold black elastic straps and glass-bead necklace. I wore my hair straight and kept my makeup simple.

  1. Kat this sleeveless blouse is beautiful on you, glad you made it the focus of your outfit! The colour of your nail polish is such a great fall hue, I need to unpack my bottles so I can start painting :)
