Casual Cool Stripes

Brrrr. It really is starting to cool down, isn’t it? Johnny and I went to dinner last night at around 6:30 so we decided to sit outside. As soon as the sun went down, I was filled with regret. It was so chilly! Luckily, I brought a trench and was able to keep warm, but I have to say, I am not loving it! Cold weather isn’t so bad when you’re prepared for it, but this up and down is killing me!
I paired a simple striped tee with some tan pants for a casual look. Topped off with a hat and finished with some pointed flats make this fall look perfect for date night with my favorite. We went to dinner and then headed to Trader Joe’s for some groceries & 2 buck chuck (obvi). Pro tip: don’t go grocery shopping when you’re full. You’ll get no food and come home pretty much empty handed. I swear, it’s just as bad as going to the grocery store hungry!

I also haven’t straightened my hair in forever and I really liked it! It’s grown a lot and I never notice until I straighten it. Anyway, we had lots of fun and it was great to take it easy and relax for once. Aren’t stripes just the perfect casual print?
What do you wear for a casual date night?

Great outfit. I am sooo in love with stripes and totally feel there is so many looks one can create with a simple stripe top. Please do take some time to look at my latest post and hope you will enjoy my takes on stripes.

I love this casual stripe top with these pants! The color of the pants is so different than your typical khaki. Love it!

You are certainly taking your chances eating out doors this time of year, good thing you had your coat!
October 23, 2014 @ 5:32 pm
Haha, I know, right?! It was in the high 60s when we got there so it was nice, but by the time we left, it had to be in the 50s. Brrrr!!

I adore stripes, they do a lot for your figure when you wear a dress, or top, even pants/jeans!
October 23, 2014 @ 6:13 pm
So true! I have so many striped dresses & I love them all! 🙂
October 23, 2014 @ 9:23 pm
This hat is a perfect accessory for fall! And great for date night too 🙂

My date-night oufit would be favorite striped tee paired with black shorts and a tuxedo blazer, Pushed-up sleeves and a half-tucked shirt keep the look from being too stuffy.
October 24, 2014 @ 11:58 am
That sounds perfect! I wish it wasn’t too cold to wear shorts here already! 🙁
October 24, 2014 @ 4:23 am
I love your hat and trench!

I live outside of Atlanta and I have been loving the chilly weather! Love how your top is loose fit and your hat is perfect! LOL about not going to the grocery store full, that sounds 100% correct.
October 28, 2014 @ 3:34 pm
Haha, yeah I learned that lesson the hard way! And thank you! The loose fitting top definitely helped with my comfort after a big meal, haha!

At my last count I had about 10 striped tops in different variations, and still I almost cried when I had to throw away my favourite, as it was simply worn out… It has since been replaced and my life is back in balance! Anything and everything can be worn with and might very possibly look better with a striped top, preferrably in black and white!
I laughed out loud when I read your comment about not going grocery shopping when you are full. I’m extremely full of delicious Indian food and a grande latte as I type this, and I couldn’t even step close to a grocery store right now without feeling nauseated. So I hear you on that!
