Fashion Inspiration/Hot under {$100}: Striped Blazer inspired by Olivia Palermo

June 19, 2013

How many pieces of striped clothing do you own (I’m at 5, but wear 3 pieces all the time)?

I have to hold myself from buying yet another striped dress, but keep coming back to this versatile pattern. I love how it can be casual and nautical on one hand and boldly dramatic and formal on the other hand.

I hadn’t really thought of a striped blazer until I saw Olivia Palermo in this Zara blazer.  Ir t is also striking and yet easy to wear.

    i have all horizontal stripes come to think about it. no vertical. probably because i’m tall and it would emphasize too much. great post.

      I bet you would still look good in vertical stripes Kim! Hmm I actually saw diagonal/chevron like stripes the other day as well and think it would be flattering on a lot of people!

    Olivia always looks great – I love her blazer, but I’m dying over those shoes!

    • Chic 'n Cheap Living June 19, 2013 at 20:16

      Kim, I thought the same thing! Her shoes are great! I’ll let you know if I find out the designer.

    Adore this look from head to toe, I found a great Striped blazer from an Australian store but have yet to wear it, I do love Olivia’s styling, how amazing are those heels!

    • Chic 'n Cheap Living June 19, 2013 at 20:16

      Sam, stripes and high heels sound fab!

    OOH! I have a striped blazer just like this! Thanks for inspiring me to dress it in different ways than my standard jeans and tee. Love this look so much!
