3 Ways to Style a Breton Striped Top

For my second episode of my 3 Ways to Style series I've decided to style the classic Breton Striped Top. The top that you'll see in this video is from COS, one of my favorite Swedish fashion brands. If you're a fan of minimal pieces, great quality basics, and loose fitting clothes then COS is for you. Although the Breton stripes were originally worn by the French navy seaman in Brittany (north of France), the style has transcended time and gender to become one of the most versatile prints in fashion. Breton stripes are by far my favorite print to wear and once you get a good quality top it'll be real hard to put it down.

I know that my wardrobe has been a bit on the non-colorful side lately. I just prefer to dress in dark colors so I can wear a bright lip or eyeshadow effortlessly. When I saw this top on the COS website I had to give in and just get something that's a bit of out my comfort zone. Prints are not something that I'm a huge fan of, then add a bunch of unsymmetrical colorful dots and you get something that sounds straight out of a horror movie to me. Oddly enough this top has become one of my favorite pieces in my wardrobe. It goes to show that sometimes it's worth stepping out of your style comfort zone.

Guess who's baaaaack? Let's just say January wasn't my month but let's start off fresh this month! I have a brand new camera, a new lens, and a few new clothing pieces that I picked up last month during the winter sales. When I saw this chunky sweater at Zara I instantly fell in love with the loose silhouette and the olive green color. I unfortunately haven't had too many opportunities to wear the sweater due to how hot it got in San Diego but this past weekend I finally saw the opportunity to wear this gem without the fear of overheating. Let's just say that olive green is now one of my favorite colors to wear.
