In honour of Jessica’s celebration of stripes, today I went for classic chic with a Breton tee, LRD (Little Red Dress) and a dash of denim. Of course, I made it my own (or totally ruined a nice simple look, whatever!) with some kooky heart print tights. Go check me – and lots of other stylish stripy types – out on What I Wore, one of my very favourite blogs and a real inspiration for A Little Bird.
Are stripes a staple in your wardrobe, or are you a block colour beauty? I’d love to know!
PS – I need closet conundrums for this week’s Wardrobe Wonderings… ask me a question for an instant style solution and I might even feature you on the blog!
you look adorable! you really do inspire me to experiment with mixing colours and prints together. thank-you!
love, jazzabelle. xxx
Cute dress love the red, white and blue and the tights are a perfect twist xoxo
Red, white and blue is such a cute combination! I’m a big fan of stripes – H&M do great stripey tshirts 🙂 x
Cute outfit, and personally I love the tights 🙂 x
So cute and pretty (especially those tights).
Reckon I did stripe overkill in the 80’s.

Love this outfit – the denim shirt finishes it off nicely. I now want a denim shirt that colour, as well as my pale denim one! Looks so versatile 🙂

That is such a pretty dress! I am a massive stripes fan, there was a point where I barely wore anything *but* stripes, though I tone them down a bit more these days as hard as it was for me to believe, there are other patterns out there just as nice!
Hey sailor jen 😉 this is such a fab outfit! Love it. I have far too many stripes in my wardrobe, due to a recent asos haul but I didnt actually realise how much the pieces I bought had it common until I looked back on my order. Definately stripes ahoy! xx
I’m a massive stripes fan, and often tend to look a bit like a sailor on the high seas in Breton top and denim flares!
Lovely! I did a post today about stripes, but not because of Jessica’s blog, what a coincidence though haha.
Ooh lovely – a really different way to work the stripes.
I must be going blind as I didn’t even notice the pattern on your tights until I read the text about them!
Such a cute outfit! Every piece just goes perfectly. Love it!

I’m addicted to stripes. Seem to spend my life looking for the perfect stripey top and the perfect red lippie. God knows what I’ll do with myself when I eventually find them! x

I love that dress 🙂 And yes I love stripes! I really need a denim shirt STAT, I love yours!
Love it 🙂
great outfit! i’m in love with your dress
Blue, white, red makes a lovely outfit on you and the dress is perfect for summer. I love stripes, but somehow I find them difficult to wear – nearly as difficult as polka dots. But I guess that’s just silly me.
This outfit is so cute and quirky! Stipes are a staple in my wardrobe they brighten up dull pieces in my wardrobe.
Stripes all the way! I do adore this remixed outfit of yours, your outfits are always so fresh and so undeniably ‘you’!
xx
hi, I love your blog by the way!! I have been wearing breton style stripes since 88!! even my baby Nancy has a breton t shirt xx
I love that dress, everytime I see it I love it more.
Great tights.
X x
I think the kooky tights are perfect && the dress is so adorable!
I like the way you have mixed things up
what a pretty outfit!
That dress is gorgeous! And the tights look great, they really make the whole thing! As for wardrobe dilemma…I’m going to a 1950s themed birthday party and don’t have a clue what to wear that will look cute and not be too expensive, plus its in about two weeks, eek! xxx
perfect! I love all things nautical
I love that red dress on you!! Love the layering too. Adorable 🙂
I really like that you added a little extra something with the striped top. Perfect!
I love your dress, perfect combination of red, white & blue :o) xXx
Love this! Love, love, love the dress and what a fun twist on the stripes with the additon of red. Fabulous!
This is such a fab combination of colours, Jen 🙂 and thanks for pointing me in the direction of Jess too !
