Stripe Club

 I've bought several striped dresses this summer, not on purpose but just because I always tend to gravitate towards stripes.  They're 'safer' and more versatile than most other prints, but are still cute and flattering.

Even though it's only July, I'm already thinking towards fall (my fave time of year).   I could see myself wearing most of these dresses now with sandals and then with black tights and boots in the fall.
