Spring Trend: Nautical Striped Dresses

Blue and white nautical stripes are a must-have addition to any stylish wardrobe. It's a quintessential Spring style that we saw once again on the Paris Spring 2011 Runways. Now here's how to translate the Parisian runways to real life:
Weekend Shopping
J Crew dress $78, J Crew belt $32.50, Steve Madden 'Genisis' $89.95For the ultimate in weekend chic, pair a casual striped shirtdress with a brown belt and neutral wedge - comfy and classic.
Lunch Date
Anthropologie dress $88, Aldo sandal 'Laurencette' $70, AE Denim jacket $49.50, Forever 21 bracelets $4.80 each, Forever 21 necklace $1.50A striped maxi dress and cute gladiators is a statement on its own. But throw a vibrant bangle or two, an anchor necklace and a jean jacket and you've got a California-ready look.
At Work
Madewell dress 'Anchors Away' $95, Anthropologie blazer $128, Corso Como 'Delicious' $129, Michael Kors watch $180For work, pair a striped shirtdress with a blazer, not-too-high red pumps, and an oversized watch.
At Play
BCBG dress $298, GUESS 'Hondo' $99, BCBG bracelet $48For a night on the town, a form fitting minidress, sky high heels, and a statement bracelet will guarantee you'll get noticed.

I'm also having serious shoe lust over these sparkly Guess heels | |
Love the look, but hate that there's no way I can wear it. Horizontal stripes aren't my current best friends. But maybe some day :-) | |
@Cathy Wedge espadrilles are def on my shopping list too! | |
This is SO my thing. I also would really like a pair of wedge espadrilles for this season. | |

I LOVE this look! However, it's not very flattering on me so I have to skip it. Too bad... |
