STRIPES
I can’t believe it’s already Friday again! I swear it feels like I just got back from the wedding I attended last weekend. Where is the time going? I have been busy this week, but I can’t tell you what I’ve done! One thing that sticks out was helping our son with the two babies on Wednesday night. My daughter in law is on a girls trip, so we helped with dinner and putting them to bed. OH MY GOSH…they are the cutest and funniest little people and totally melt my heart! We had a long game of tag, and I found out how bad of shape I am in. I would love to have the same energy that they have in their little fingers!!!
I am collaborating again with my friends from Purple Poppy. You may remember my post Here and Here. Purple Poppy is a store and online boutique, located on Cape Cod in Popponesset. If you have a trip planned for the summer, this Nation LTD Tied Tee is the perfect Spring and early Summer tee. As I have said before, I have never met a stripe I didn’t like. I think stripes look so chic, never dated, and very French. This tee has a tie on the bottom side, giving it a little more character. I get confused on whether to tuck or not and this tie solves that problem! I love stripes with white or dark denim. I thought this tee would be super cute at the beach, over a two piece bathing suit, at the end of the day when it gets a little chilly too! I added this crystal bandana choker to the mix. This choker is $19 and looks like another version for $150, that I have been seeing a lot of lately! It’s so fun for the summer!
Purple Poppy has this tee in the navy and white, and gray and white. I have both of them and love wearing them because of the quality and softness.
I’m trying a lighter hair color to see if I want it for the wedding. What do you think…lighter or more vibrant copper? I can’t decide. Hope you guys have a great weekend!!! xx

Hard to decide about the hair color. Your hair is GORGEOUS! So thick and shiny. So I’d say either color is great! Not much help, am I? Ha!

I love striped tees and this one has the added interest of a tie. Winner!
I like the lighter color on you. It makes a nice change for summer. Go for it!

Love stripes too! You look great!! Still too cool up North for just a tee, so my go-to is still a striped sweater look: https://lifesaspritz.com/2017/05/12/feeling-kind-of-blue/

Hi, Charlotte! Thank you for your opinion! I like it lighter too for the summer, but boy do the roots show much quicker! I am so happy that you enjoy the blog and are stepping out of the box! It’s all supposed to be fun! Stay in touch! xx
