The Perfect Striped Dress

Striped Dress

Every once in a while, you find something that fits like it was made for you. This dress is one of those things! I discovered it on the sale rack at Ann Taylor when I was looking for something else, but I just couldn’t leave it behind. Black and white never fails me, and the placement of the stripes is perfect for my shape. I wore the dress for the first time last week when I went with my husband and in-laws to temple for Yom Kippur (The Day of Repentance). Instead of a traditional cardigan or blazer and heels, I opted for a blush bomber jacket and peep-toe shoeties. So many outfits with heels lately…you should all be very proud!

You can thank a rainy day for the less than picturesque backdrop of the street outside my in-laws place. But, I loved this outfit too much not to share!
