I’m trying to kill two birds with one stone with this outfit. Today is of course, Color Brigade Tuesday but it is also Breton Stripes day at Everybody, Everywear!
This striped outfit was actually not my originally planned outfit, but it turned out to be way colder than I thought when I woke up this morning. My thin striped long-sleeve shirt wasn’t going to cut it so I opted instead for this soft angora cowl-neck sweater dress instead! With this heavy sweater dress layered under another thick wool skirt, I was ready to brave the cold weather (and by cold, I mean temperatures in the 40s. I’m a Texan! ^_^) I admit that the gray is a bit darker than I would prefer for Color Brigade day, but alas I had to stay warm and I needed stripes. Hopefully you’ll be a little lenient on me for this one.
Now it’s your turn! Link up your colorful outfits and make me wish I hadn’t worn such a boring gray. 🙂
Note, feel free to link up any outfit you wore in the past week or an outfit that you’ll be wearing later this week — it doesn’t have to be something you actually wore today!

Sorry that EBEW fell on the same day as your color brigade. But, I do love how you worked the two together! The skirt and tights are perfect together and the striped top adds a great pattern to it all!

*ooops* i mean lime, grey, and white. my b.
Your grey/white stripes look so good against the subdued teal and maroon of your bottoms. I think maroon tights definitely need to be a staple in every girl's closet!
@Amy Z. i agree! i wear mine at least once a week! 🙂
i am seeing maroon tights more and more and i love them! they are the perfect subtle pop! you look great – especially in that skirt (love the color!)! and love the LV bag!!!
Colours and stripes too! See, you are truly gifted in the fashion department!
You have an innate style and know how to pair things so seamlessly!
Love this outfit hun!

I LOVE this outfit – you look so classically chic! I do have a soft spot for stripes 🙂
Kileen – I'm so sorry – I messed up my entry (#4) when I tried to enter it via iPhone. Please excuse the double entry – is there any way to delete the mess up? Thanks so much!
This is perfect! I love that skirt with those tights and shoes. Fabulous color combination, and the stripe compliment it so well!!
There is just something about this outfit that I am completely in LOVE with! It just looks so clean and classic! That coat is gorgeous…I remember trying to buy that from F21 a few years ago (or a similar one) but they were sold out, so I ended up with orange. I think I'll wear it today for color brigade day!
I really like the subtlety of this week's color brigade. It just goes to show that you can colorful doesn't have to be loud.
Love this look! The colors are fantastic – especially loving the maroon tights with the blue skirt. Don't you just love the J Crew serge pencil skirt? I'm finding it very VERY difficult not to wear mine all the time.
@SewPetiteGal just fixed! 🙂
@Linley just fixed up your entry! 🙂
I love that J. Crew skirt! I might just have to break down and buy one. The colors are too lovely!
@Hiking in Stilettos that's what i did! i just loved the colors too much! 🙂
You are just perfectly gorgeous in this! I love the color in that skirt and the cowl neck on the sweater is so flattering on you.
Love the trench coat, it goes with everything and it looks gorgeous. I believe every girl should own a trench coat =)
I think you hit by challenges spot on! The skirt is so beautiful. I keep hoping it will go on sale 🙂
This is my favorite of your three color brigade offerings. I don't think it is boring at all.

@I Don't Wear Jeans aww thank you! i'm glad. 🙂
@Emmy it's such a great investment piece! i'm most definitely going to be wearing the heck out of it so i think it's worth the money. 🙂
The color of your skirt is so gorgeous. The entire outfit looks so luxurious with that coat. You are one well dressed lady who has a great sense of style! I find a lot of inspiration from many of your outfits.
Yay, I joined the color brigade! I love this idea because I'm a fan of color.
I adore your skirt! It's perfect with the burgundy tights!
I really love the Grey stripes combination on the brighter color!! this is a statement that color brigade doesnt have to be loud color!! I just got my self red tights!! So I think I will try to incorporate my outfit next tuesday and see what I do lol

I love that J Crew skirt…and how exciting your petite fashion challenge will feature that also! I can't wait to see!!
Another Breton stripe outfit, a lot different then the one's I have seen. I really like the classy theme you have with your stripes! Lovely!
Pretty! I love the color of that skirt, and I love how you paired it with gray and burgundy. So pretty (did I already say that? Well it's really pretty!).
The turquoise and burgundy look so great together.
