I don't think there is any question about how popular and classic stripes are. Essentially, they are eternally chic and have never gone out of style. I wanted to pair mine with some leopard heels, which I am in love with, and a pretty pink top. I love the detailing of pearls and rhine stones along the collar. It adds such a feminine flair to the top. There's so many ways to style this skirt, which is always a plus since it can pair with so many different items in your closet. How lovely is this bow bag too! It's actually a faint blush color, but always comes up a nude in photos. The skirt does run a bit small though. Normally I would have gotten the small and opted for the medium based on the reviews. It has an elastic waist with a zipper in the back and fit perfectly.
