bold stripes.


Striped dress: Forever 21. Cross-body purse: Forever 21. Beaded sandals: Minnetonka. Bracelet: gifted. Rings: H&M and vintage. 

Well, I'm officially aboard the stripes train. I couldn't pass up this cute, casual number! I liked that it was a summery dress, but not necessarily a sundress, you know? Now that I'm seeing it in photos I'm realizing this may not be my most flattering dress, but I do still love the bold stripes! I also am finding that because of the two dominant stripe colors & wide, simple pattern, that this is the perfect outfit to throw in accent colors and patterns with. I've done this with a little striped cross-body bag, Navajo-inspired sandals, and fun rings.

I also started my summer internship this week! Besides the tremendous amount of information & skills I'm having to pick up in a quick manner, I really like everyone I work with and love having my own desk, company email address and extension (I'm finally feeling a little bit more like a grown-up haha). Since it's a casual office, I think this dress will be a perfect little number to wear into my internship!

xo,
Jacy

You look amazing as always :). I love the bold red stripes, they're different and simple. Also, that's so exciting that you found something for your internship... I'll be starting mine in a week and have learned I have absolutely nothing to wear!
