Jail Bird

I love stripes.  A classic pattern that is either loved or hated.  I love stripes (did I already mention that already?).  Stripes are already everywhere, but I have been peeking through the newest spring catalogs and they are going to be bursting at the seems!  I can't wait...I feel so chibbery(it means hyper and excitable, if you were wondering.)!  There is something so clean and fresh about nautical inspired stripes, something so fun and retro about bright stripes or a chevron stripe pattern, and I LOVE anything that has stripes in black and white...call me a jail bird.

Here are some pics to get you in the mood (not that kind of mood, just a stripelicious mood).  Yes, I said stripelicious...you know you love the word.  Enjoy!

Nautical style stripes in this tee from Forever21 are taken up a notch with Red + 3/4 sleeves=  LOVES.

Thank you house of Turquoise for this post.  I  want this kitchen, I love how clean and beachy it feels.

I love the Waterfall Duvet from Urban Outfitters.  Robin's Egg Blue (my favorite color) and all shades in between to make pretty, ruffle stripes cascading down your bed...how romantic.

I am not a fan of the creepy art, but I am a fan of the wallpaper.  Love Black + White together.  Imagine if this room had those walls, minus the scary artwork but with a huge sunburst mirror instead and a duvet in a Tiffany blue with white and black accents throughout....(daydreaming as usual)!

My clutch I scored from Forever 21 in a Chevron stripe pattern. (p.s. the inside is bright yellow...sooo cute)!

Grandpa style Baby Boy Cardi from Gap...could you just imagine a chubby baby in this?  YUMMY!

My son Ryder's little Romper that he jams around the house in (bought it at babygap).   I love him even more in it, he transforms into Captain Scrumptious.

Free People can do no wrong. Love the cut, love the grey+ black combo, and love the slouchy look.   Amen.
Anthropologie...need I say more?  It is a perfect length, perfect color combo.  Bam.

Anthropologie makes things even better with this Cardigan.  Love the puff sleeves at the wrist line,  and the mix of pattern and stripes.  Perfection.  This would be adorable with black leggings and leather riding boots.

My favorite tights from Anthropologie.  Stripe + Sheer = Awesomeness.
Simple scarf from Forever 21.  This would make any plain tee not so plain.  Great lightweight material too.

I LOVE this shower curtain from Urban Outfitters.  Vintage meets romantic meet Fun.

Another great slouchy stripe tee from urban Outfitters.  (do you see a trend here?  Slouchy tunics and leggings are my "go to").


Too much?!  I think so too.  BUT I am in love with the lucite Louis chair!!!
