As some of you might be aware, the stripes are back! This time, much fiercer than before. Stripes will no longer bore us out nor look the same again. I’ve always loved stripes, if you’ve been following my blog, you’ll come to realize that I do have quite a handful of ’stripey’ stuff like tees and bodycon dresses. And now, the bigger reason to take this love a step further is that Zara has come up with their own version of breton tee, which is in my humble opinion, the most awesome breton tee I’ve ever seen. At 60 bucks! And yeah, with shoulder pads too!




I wore: Breton shoulder pad tee, Zara. Washed out denim shorts, Paige Denim. Glitter flats, Repetto. Bag, Balenciaga. Watch, Franck Muller.
Special thanks to the boy who bought me the breton tee!!

PPS: I am deliberating which bag to bring for my Italy trip. Grey (view the bag here) or red balenciaga? Grey would make a lovely neutral and will definitely attract much lesser unwanted attention as compared to the red, but the red is an awesome red which brings out the best in every outfit! What do you think?



I love that top! Great embellishments on the shoulders. Classic stripes are so chic. I would probably bring the gray bag, but it depends on what you are packing. Maybe get all your outfits together first and then see which bag will go with more outfits? That’s probably what I would do. The red bag probably won’t get as dirty as the gray bag. I always worry about my bags so maybe you do too. Just my two cents! You look cute in your photos!

the red AND the grey! they both are gorgeous and give you more possibilities
amazing top!!! i am abit slow…didnt know the stripes are back! good that we can recycle our stripes clothes LOL!
I would probably bring the grey bag as I dont want to attract too much attention in a foreign country…
Love love stripes !! And yes,they’re so in right now:) I’m loving my striped dress I got recently too,so beautiful.
Aldo the bejeweled details on your top is gorgeous. I say bring the red balenciaga fro your trip!! Just stand out from the crowd and I think red is a color that makes you happy because its so bright<3
Beautiful, darling, just beautiful.
And bring the red Balenciaga. I love my red Chloe to death in the colder months- its bold color makes me happy in the blah blacks and grays of winter!
I’m also a lover of stripes! The tee from Zara looks great on you
And I would go with the grey bag. It’s more neutral and would compliment a lot more outfits, I think. And although the red bag is absolutely gorgeous and the colour is really lovely, it’s hard to wear with every outfit. I hope you enjoy your trip to Italy. When do you leave?
Love the tee and the Balenciaga! Actually I just spotted a woman with a red City in Florence the other day, so it wno’t really be that unusual. Either color would work for the reasons you described.
Oh, and I just sent you an email, but I won’t be in Florence by the time you get there
Good luck with the shopping and I’m sure you’ll love it! I didn’t get to the designer outlets this time, but the last time I went they were pretty amazing (you’ll need to hire a car or get your concierge to book you a car/cab). The good news is that end of season sales don’t start in Europe until after Christmas (usually January), so at least you won’t be tempted to spend too much in the actual stores
GREY GREY GREY! Black and red is soooooo cliche.
Hi there! Nice blog! I love it!

Happy midweek,Miss Adela!

Woooow… I came across your blog because Roll Up Your Sleeve mentioned you at her blog… You have great style, totally LOVE it!! This outfit is just perfection, that shirt is just so fabolous.. Wish it was mine ;P
Love your tee!
bring both? i really like both the grey and the red. the red bag suits your pale skin a lot and it’ll be a wondrous pop of colour in fall. you’ve already decided on the holidaying wardrobe? show us and do a poll?
i thought stripes don’t ever go out. this tee is really nice. you looked great.
wondering if you’d be getting back to me about my question in the post about the hello kitty excursion. i’ve been checking back that entry. thanks.
