It is no surprise that I LOVE stripes...I mean, heck, they make an appearance in many of the posts!  They're obviously nautical--my fave.  They're a good partner and foundation for pattern mixing.  They're classic and never go out of style.  They're fresh, modern, & clean.  Given the right width, they can be quite figure flattering.  They have an element of neutrality and can go with mostly anything.... I think y'all catch the drift!

"Easy Breezy Lemon Squeezy," is how my daughter described this look..and you know what, I think she's right!!  You'll come to know that I do love myself a good ole' tucked in blouse n' jeans look...it's just classic, comfy, and crisp!   PS:  Blouse is on SALE AT JCREW!!
