Today's Everyday Fashion: Candy Stripes













































I spent the day with a personal shopping client on Wednesday and this is what I wore! She recently lost her baby weight after 2 kids, had a $1,000 budget, and was pretty much starting from scratch. I wore this outfit for a couple reasons - one, whenever I'm representing my business, I try to wear something "creative." I also wore this for comfort. The flats were a must for all the walking, and the crossbody bag allowed me to have both hands free so I could carry more clothing. One unfortunate downside to this outfit, though - between the weight from the strap on my purse and the giant necklace, it scuffed up my shirt, and I think it might be ruined.  :-( (Good thing there are so many cute replacements below!) What do you wear when you go shopping? Are you digging the candy stripes trend?
