I own far to many striped pieces of clothing. Quite frankly, I just own too many pieces of clothing, but stripes is a main theme across my wardrobe. I have been trying to stick to some kind of spending ban at the moment but I have to say I'm struggling. This is why I have been trying to wear more of the clothes in my wardrobe as I actually have quite a few things that I have only worn a number of times. When I'm looking around a shop lusting after something new, I remember the words of the great Gok Wan 'Shop Less, Wear More' and that is the ethos I'm trying to stick to!

                           

                           

       

                                     

                               

                                        

        

I picked up this dress in Primark for a fiver last year. I didn't wear it too much as it wasn't a very flattering length, so I took five minutes, sewed the hem up an inch or two end et voila- a new dress! I really like how quirky this dress looks with the little collar and I like the fact that because it's striped it can jazz up more plain pieces like black and grey jumpers. Simply pairing it with tights, boots and a berry lip is a pertect at to make it autumn appropriate!
