I believe in stripes for every season and this season its pink stripes. This boat neck stripe shirt from J.Crew has been a go to for me since I bought it. It’s easy, fun and can be dressed up with accessories. It is three-quarter length sleeves but is great with jeans on a brisk day or on a warmer day with shorts for a balanced summer look.

I like wearing my pink stripes with gold accents and a little sparkle. My necklace is also from J.Crew, it has a blush colored stone and hanging diamonds that dress up your casual look just a little. You could also wear a sparkly statement necklace and heels if you were wearing this for a late night look. On a cooler day or night pair with a jean jacket or cargo jacket.

Please note this shirt also comes in other colors so you can fill your closet with stripes for each season!

Sometimes a simple sweater is all you need! Take your sweaters to the next level by adding more accessories and bringing in other colors. I found this waffle textured sweater at Madewell and love the unique color pairing and comfy feel. Sometimes on chilly days, it’s all to easy to trade style for comfort. Adding a bold accessory is just the thing to make a comfy outfit look chic. I spiced it up with this J.Crew necklace, now on sale, to bring out the gray and tan tones.

For other accessories I threw on a matching cobalt sling bag for consistency and magenta flats for something unexpected. Both are older items that I’ve had for years and have made their way back into the rotation.

What’s your chilly day attire?
