I saw this look on Pinterest, and I like it so much, that I thought that I might try to recreate it. All I need is a hot pink silk scarf and a black and white printed shirt.

Without question, the most worn item in my wardrobe is a black-and-white striped tee. I wear it in winter under sweaters, in spring with white jeans, in summer with black shorts. I’ve been wearing the same one for years (it’s the best). But they don’t make it anymore. So here are some options for replacement.
When I started this blog, influencers still re-wore clothes. There were no haul videos filled with the latest from Shein before it winds up in a beach in Ghana poisoning the planet. There were no sponsored campaigns delivering fresh wardrobes each month. The content machine doesn’t like reruns.
When I was young, my Mother used to bring me along when she would go shopping for fabric. As a result, I spent a lot of time, killing time, flipping through pattern books. So when I spotted this dress, I was instantly transported to the pattern table at a Jo-Ann Fabrics.

Before we start today’s reader questions, I wanted to take a moment to talk a bit about mental health. For those who experience mental health challenges — whether occasionally or frequently — talking about our struggles is a double-edged sword.
Love. A great inspiration.
This reminds me of the Jason Wu for Target shirt I bought on Sunday!
I love this! Any suggestions on how to make it work on the quite busty? I'm picturing (unless someone corrects me) wearing the shirt unbuttoned to mimic a v-neck, with the bow tied at the first button that is buttoned. Would that work?
Thanks!
Busty? That's a tough one. I'd skip the scarf and try a large statement necklace, in the same color, worn under the collar instead. But button ups and busty ladies are always a difficult combo.
any suggestions on where to get a hot pink scarf? i also love this combo… and was recently rejected by talbots petite in my attempt to buy a pretty awesome (and clearanced out) hot pink pencil skirt. received an email today informing me that they were out of stock when i placed my order!!! brutal disappointment.
I'm loving black and white with hot pink this season. I was just looking at the bottom one earlier this week. Great choices!
