You hear me, STRIPES are back this spring & summer! The nautical look is back - BIGGER and bolder. So, are you hopping onboard on this trend alert? I remember growing up and reading some random magazine that said you can’t wear stripes unless you know your body shape. Horizontal stripes make you look fat - thus, an absolute no-no. Vertical stripes make you look taller if you’re petite. Kiss the rules goodbye, because stripes are fabulous and these hot celebrities will show you how:

Asymmetrical strips will naturally slim down your body - it’s all about optical illusion. The lovely Becky Newton looking very retro in her couture gown, whereas mummy J.Lo looks super hot in knee-high boots and a sleek black hat. Are we seeing more black & white?

My favourite girl crush, Kate Moss is sporting stripes too! As Glamour’s No. 1 best-dressed women list of 2008, Kate Moss is definitely worth the close-watch and if she’s wearing stripes, then it must be trendy! Michelle Trachtenberg looks stunning in this stripey frock which I personally think is very pretty! She makes horizontal stripes look enticing, and elegant.
I heart stripes! Don’t you?
