Stripes!

I love stripes. Simple as that. To me, they are a design classic that never date, and work in almost any situation. I love them wide, I love them narrow. I love them for curtains, I love them for upholstery. I love them vertical, and I love them horizontal. I'm especially partial to a pinstripe, or a mens suiting stripe. I would almost put stripes on everything if I didn't hold myself back. Here are just a few that I particularly like...

    I'm usually a fan of larger scale stripes, but I do love the more tailored suit styles as well! Great post!!

    I love your writing and photos. I'm into stripes in green these days. I've got a swatch - light green/yellow, gold stripe - I'll make bedroom curtains out of it once I get to HK~

    Agreed LondonCalling! Dapper. Stripes are always very cheering to me. I'm thinking of painting the bedroom in horizontal tone on tone stripes...
