Thereâs just something about stripesâĶI donât know if itâs the stylish ease they present or the french girl vibes they produce, but thereâs definitely something there.
Iâm going to be honest with you though - stripes and I recently went on a break. I know, how could I?! But hereâs the thing. In transitioning from my preppier/nautical style to a more subdued, classic, semi-minimalist, part-hippie vibe (still working on figuring out exactly what it is I amâĶ), I thought stripes didnât fit my new aesthetic.
But then this Bec & Bridge dress came in the mail. Iâd been dying to try this Australian brand but hadnât found anywhere locally. Thankfully, Lyon+Post offered it as an option to try with their free subscription box. Yes I said free - and you can get a $30 credit to the site (in case you canât part with something in your box!) if you use my little referral link! You know you want to.
So I tried on the dress and it fit like a glove. Literally though. Like a glove. Definitely tighter than Iâm used to. But I loved it! And the thing I loved most? The subtle grey stripes. Itâs like they were saying, âcome back to meâ - how could I say no? They were just TOO GOOD on this dress.
Anyway, stripes, Iâm sorry. I was lost without you. But Iâm so happy you found your way back into my life.
