Plus Size Lookbook: Stripes

 :

Note: This post is NOT sponsored. I am not being paid for anything in this blog post. However, I was introduced to a project that Social Print Studio is doing and was inspired to create a lookbook of my favorite looks. Their social team is checking out their favorites! If you know me at all, you know that I love, love, love photos. I am also an avid scrapbooker, so I'm always having photos printed. I checked out their website and it's pretty awesome! They have so many different ways that you can print your photos. You can get them printed on a magnet, calendar, round magnets, in custom photobooks and much more. I'm really excited to be able to share this lookbook with you guys today showcasing one of my favorite patterns to wear--stripes!

Look One: I adore stripes so much! Especially black and white stripes. For this look, I went pretty chill and casual. Man, this outfit is comfy! 

Over my striped tank, I threw on this awesome vintage button up that I got from a rummage sale for $2! I got it last year and it's one of my favorite pieces to wear. I feel like denim looks great with stripes, so these two were just a match made in Heaven! 

To keep the look as comfy as possible, without looking frumpy, I threw on some black jeggings and sneakers. I love these sneakers so much! I got them as a gift a year ago and they are just gorgeous. Since they are black/white/silver, I can wear them with pretty much anything. 

To top of this casual look, I threw on my hat that I've had for the longest time. My dad gave it to me when I was younger because it had apparently shrunk in the wash. Haha Unlucky for Dad, but lucky for me! ;)

Look Two: For this look, I paired my relaxed striped shirt with leopard print. I thought that it was kind of different, so I wanted to try it. I actually really like these patterns mixed together. Who says you can't wear both black and brown?

I threw a scarf over my shirt to make it look like a kimono. My scarf is light, so it works for the spring and summer time. I decided to carry my leopard bag and put on my leopard flats to match it all together.

Of course, I had to wear this gorgeous hat! I absolutely love it. It really just goes with everything. I feel like it just completes this outfit.

For this look, I decided to dress up my striped shirt a bit. There are so many things that you can wear with this pattern. It's just awesome!

Look Three: First of all, I apologize for my face in these photos! Haha I was squinting pretty hard as you can tell and the lighting really isn't great. So, sorry about that, but hopefully you enjoy the outfit anyways. :)

For this look, I went with a brighter, cleaner, more slightly professional feel. I think the blazer-esque overshirt helped to give off that kind of vibe. I love how crisp and white it is. 

I love the pop of royal blue with the stripes and bubble necklace. It really livens up an otherwise monochromatic look.

Look Four: This look has to be one of my very favorites. I've worn this striped dress a LOT. No, seriously...like, a LOOOOTTT. I'm totally fine with that because it's so versatile. I bought this dress a few years ago at Ross and I've never come across a more perfect striped maxi dress. I'm only 4'11, so the fact that this looks like it isn't too long on me is such a winner in my book. Being short is difficult, man! I could actually wear this dress every day and not be mad about it. ;)

It just so happens that the neck and arms of this dress is lined with lime green. Pretty awesome! I thought it went nicely with this kimono that I purchased from Goody's last year. I did a little pattern mixing here, which I'm no stranger to as I've this a lot. It's so much fun and adds interest to your outfit.
