I Can't Get Enough of Striped Tanks

(Tank from Bealls, jeans from Old Navy, heels from Shoe Carnival, 
earrings from Forever 21, bracelet from Victoria's Secret, Steve Madden sunglasses)
You can't really tell from the pics but the striped tank I'm wearing has tiny clear sequins all over it! Aren't I just getting so adventurous? No but seriously, baby steps people! Since I was too late to get on the blog swap bandwagon for this week's Friday's Fancies, I took the striped tank + sweater + jeans thing I was feeling and ran with it instead. I stuck with a very simple color palette for each look and added in some accessories to tie everything together. I would wear the first look out to run errands, the second look to take my son to the park, and the third look out on a fancy date with my man. Speaking of dates, I would love to go on one this weekend, anyone want to babysit? =) Color Coordinated One
Color Coordinated Two







Color Coordinated Three



Here are two outfits I LOVE with similar concepts, just with blazers instead of sweaters layered over the tanks.
