Inspiration for this post came last week when I joined StyleCaster’s #stylechat. It takes place every Wednesday from 3-4pm EST. I’m always amazed at the turnout and the fun fashion knowledge that’s shared. Last week there was a conversation around stripes and how they go with everything.

So, since the chat I’ve been adding new pins to my “Stripes.” board on Pinterest. I’ve always liked wearing stripes, (see posts here, here, here and here for past outfits) I think I own 7-8 different striped tops all from the Gap in various colors. I just always thought that when I wore stripes I couldn’t take a ton of risks or chances on incorporating other patterns or prints. Now though with a new season here and some fresh inspiration thanks to StyleCaster and Pinterest, I’m excited to try wearing stripes in new ways. Here are some pictures that are inspiring me right now.
