The
Style
Shakedown...

Striped Jersey Circ dress 
          by leina broughton


This style is one of my favorites at the moment. The stripes are so enticing and the splash of red at the waist gives this dress a marine French feel. The jersey is soft so easy to layer and also transition from Summer into Autumn. For a summer look use nude accessories and for transeasonal try mixing it up with classic black.


Jacket ideas:
For transeasonal keep it clean with a soft-cropped leather jacket with ¾ sleeve. If black is not your style try tan leather accessories and remove the red belt.


Bag:
There are a few different looks that will work but texture is definitely a nice contrast against the soft jersey of this dress. Try to avoid bags with ‘bling’ for this style. As with the jacket not everything has to match. When there are slightly different tones it makes your style appear more effortless…










Shoes: 
The key is to keep it simple! Nude or black is best for this look. If wearing a peep toe make sure you highlight the red on your toes. I think wearing a red shoe with this style is too matchy with the belt and detracts from the main feature of the stripes.
                   
But you really do have to try this style on to feel the fun of wearing it. The circular skirt is flirty and feminine and you will definitely turn heads in this one.
Have fun!

Best, Leina xx
