A thing for stripes

One of the many things that pinterest has taught me is that I have a slight ... wait, major thing for stripes (well, and also polka dots). I find myself drawn to them again and again, I have for quite a long time. Today I'm feeling extra stripey. What about you, anything you find yourself repeatedly drawn to even if it is in style or not?

I'm always drawn to stripes and polka dots too! Love that striped camera strap!

Ditto fric... I think stripes and dots are sweet and girly without being too prissy. They are also simultaneously demure and sexy... without being either too demure or too sexy. Perfect fit!

Stripes have always been a favorite of mine. I used to wear striped tops or skirts all the time. I have two striped decorative pillows in my living room. Planning to add some striped yellow curtains and striped throw pillows in my master bedroom.

To me, stripes always feel fresh and modern.

chevron gets me every time! that striped top looks like it would be majorly flattering. tucked in in all the right places.

I love this post. I love stripes too. I own a gazillion striped shirts and I wear them over and over again. But I am most drawn to poppys. I love buying anything with the poppy print:, cards, art, skirts, etc.

cats...always drawn to cats...
not exactly a fashion style...more a life style, I suppose!

Oooh love that striped camera strap! And all things stripes too. I was cleaning my closet this weekend and realized that my shirts are 90% striped...it's becoming a problem!

That camera strap is too cool!

Yep, I am a fellow stripe fanatic...not so much polka dots though. I am a stripes and sparkles girl. ;)

I think I'd be relieved if I noticed a trend like that on my pinterest!

The only thing my pinterest is hinting at is visual schizophrenia (I had to look that up) ...

I think I like too much stuff.

I love stripes and polka dots, too. My roommate and I became obsessed our junior year in college (99/00). We'd wear striped socks almost every day and decorate our letters & mix tape covers with colored circle labels for a polka dot effect. :) My love for them hasn't died yet. So classic.
