So the wonderful Jessica of What I Wore decided to put together a Breton Stripe Tuesday. Since I definitely have a slight stripe obsession… it was only natural. I was down in Virginia for my sister’s graduation from Nursing School (CONGRATS SISTA!!). I wanted to wear something with a nautical flair. The gold accents were the perfect way to snazz this up. After the graduation, we were able to take a walk on the beach with my whole family. Sand in toes is heaven. What a great weekend!!
Don’t forget to head over to Jessica’s page to check out the other lovely ladies of the stripes.

The dress looks lovely and summery!! love it paired with the gold belt and sandals. – I’ve been wanting a thin gold belt similar to this for ages.
