Fashion Magazine asked the style panel how to style stripes for the updated trend. It’s a lot less nautical and a lot more graphic and edgy.  Here’s what I said.

Sweatshirts with graphic prints are all the rage this season, and for the first time can be worn confidently outside of your bedroom. This one is one I’ve held on to for many many years, as a child I grew up with the owner’s of this fine grocery store, and it brings back many memories of running through the store, nibbling on all the fresh produce and baked goods.  (oh those are grapes from my local fruit market)
