I’m not sure when my obsession with stripes began but I can’t seem to get enough. There’s just something about it that I love. Maybe because it’s easy to wear, goes with everything and can be worn all year round. Today, I’m showing you how to wear a striped dress for all four seasons.

The first look can be worn now or in the Spring but for the sake of this post, let’s just say now (lol). I styled it with my utility olive vest, leopard foldover clutch and some cognac strappy sandals. You can easily swap out the sandals for some ankle booties to transition into Fall. If you’re looking for a utility vest, here are some great options:

This next outfit is for Fall but can be worn in the Spring too. I paired it with my Burberry trench coat. I love this look because it’s classic, simple and can be dressed up with some pumps for a work. Need a trench coat? I’ve rounded up some of my favorites:

For Winter, I switched out my Burberry trench coat for a belted camel wool cape, a darker handbag and cognac boots. I’m so happy this cape still fits over my baby bump. I had a navy wool hat but forgot to put it on because I was sweating so bad during this photo shoot. It was hot as heck and by the time I figured it out, it was too late. #fail

For Spring, I kept it light and airy with this flamingo scarf and some pink pumps and a neutral handbag. I also would wear this with a leopard scarf and some nude pumps. This look would work for Summer too.
Thanks so much for reading and stopping by. Hope you have a great day!

@Stylish Petite What size is your striped dress?
XS:)
I like it worn with the trench coat or scarf! Have you tried Burberry’s 00 size coats? How does the 0 fit on you? Any problems with the sleeves being too long or shoulders too wide?
Thanks Helen! When I bought this coat online, it said it was a US 00 but it’s in fact a US 0. The way the labeling is very confusing and I believe the smallest size is a 0. It fits me well but the sleeves still need to be slimmed and shortened but other than that, good overall fit. 🙂
Love this! (I’m a little bit obsessed with stripes)
I also just bought a bitching trench coat and now I’m dying to wear it.
I’m new to your blog but I’m already in love with your style & tips!
