Candy Stripes!

candy stripe sweaters

Details

I have fallen in love with this season's candy stripe craze!  I love how fun and cheery it looks, plus it pairs well with just about any color bottom.  You can chose to go neutral with a blue or white jean, or you can get a little risky by coordinating it with a colored jean! I personally would stick to neutral bottoms, as seen in most of these outfits, but I love how Forever 21 paired theirs with pink shorts! 

I actually own the J.Crew Factory sweater...picked it up in this haul for $15! It was marked down in the store to $30.00 with an additional 50% off!  Again my bargain hunting ways come out. When I first saw this sweater, it immediately reminded me of the J.Crew Candy Stripe Sweater, but I knew that came with a hefty cashmere price tag.  So, knowing it was so close to not being sweater season anymore, I decided to save and purchase the sweater for $15....It was a no-brainer!

I so hope you all were able to make it into the factory store for their 50% off sale...it was amazing!  If not, there will always be another sale! :)

How do you like the candy stripes that are EVERYWHERE in stores? Is it color overload for you or can you not get enough colors?!
