More photos from roaming the streets of Annapolis. The weather was incredible on Friday and I took advantage of it by walking down to the water and inspecting all the adorable shops in the historic district. A lot of the boutiques on the main drag were overpriced, but in the antique shops off the beaten path, there were deals to be had! I found a fantastically delicate costume necklace and a pretty little tasseled velvet purse (both of which I will share soon!).




This necklace actually came from a trendy boutique, but it was dirt cheap :-)



Loved the beautiful old houses here.

I love that the shades aren't white, it takes the outfit to another level. Amazing sandals, too.
I love the two different weight stripes together. it's a very cool look!
I would never have thought to do two sets of stripes together. The belt is the perfect way to break them up. Or unite them. You pick.
those sandals are pretty fab! and i love your sunnies - i need to add more to my collection ;)

I want to live in one of those houses...
ps. Tassled and velvet? Definitely sounds like something I'd be in to.
I love Ur new necklace! :)

I love the different stripes combined here. So cute. And I loved the houses when I was in Annapolis. I wish I had more time to explore when I was there.
I love how the stripes on the shirt and skirt don't clash and make you look like a prisoner. How do you do that?
I want to LIVE in that first house, gorgeous!
oh it looks adorable I'll put it on my must-see list next time I'm around DC!
Oh, how I love all things nautical and saily-stripey in the summer!! So lovely :)

This is the most perfectly wonderful outfit, and I'm simply crazy over those sandals!!
cute shoes and love what you've done with the stripes!!!
Love the photos! The sandals are perfect! I want!
Perfect mixed stripes! And I love the mega-thick belt! Such a clever outfit! And the necklace is gorgeous.

I am a huge fan of mixing patterns, especially now mixing stripes because of my obsession with all things sailor. I thought it was a stripey dress! You look fantastic!

I love how well the skirt and top go together. AAnd the necklace really is great!
I love the sunnies with this. You look cool, crisp, and oh so chic!
I love historical houses. The colors and style is so lovely. I like how you mixed the stripes. I find that it's better to wander around looking the empty shops than going to the most popular ones.
Sigh, I miss the East Coast. I love your shades -- tres beautiful! And don't get me started on the shoes. Excellent.
xo
you look very familiar (like I've seen you on Chictopia???). Love this look...never been to the East Coast before but feels like I'm there!

LOVE the houses. And wow, you are just cuter than cute! This outfit is just so perfect! Adorable! Yet grown up and stylish and just so perfect. Yes, I heart your style.
Those sunnies just make it too. Love it.
nice!!!
I am loving this post. Annapolis looks like such a wonderful trip - and makes me very excited to visit the eastern side of the country later this summer.
And the sandals look great! I lost my toenail while training for a run back in March and always look at everyone else's open toe sandals during the summer.
Oh my! I love stripe on stripe so much, you make it look like the perfect dress!

and i'm reminded YET AGAIN that i STILL have no stripes in my closet :[ the look fits you wonderfully and i love the belting detail.

Love your photos. You have a great eye.
I love the houses, they look like gingerbread houses! I have family in Annapolis, I've been meaning to go visit. It's so much quainter then I was picturing it. Love all your stripes - it's so fitting to wear nautical stripes in Annapolis too.

you let me borrow those sandals?
Pretty dress. I love it. It's so pretty. Very nautical.
Love your sunglasses!;)
Love those sandals. I have a thing for shoes that tie at the ankles!
Well you young lady can seriously rock the stripes. I love the silhouette as well, hourglass with the stripes growing more soft at the skirt. And that big thick belt cinching your tiny narrow waist, chic! You of course look beautiful as ever. And the street photos are wonderful; I love old architecture like this!
And ha-ha at you calling me kid, I've got like 20 years up on you...
You always have the most amazing outfits and pictures. I love your outfit, it's simple, but still.. It looks amazing.. :)

Love the many shades of blue you're wearing! And Annapolis looks beautiful :)
You're absolutely stunning, love! And the sunglasses are amazing!
Oh you look so cute! I love the sailorish touch with the stripes and this belt is awesome!
Aaw and these old houses! They look so pretty, I think it's sad that today's architecture is more about concrete and glass.
Aah, what a lovely cool looking outfit!
I really like those old houses, theyre like nothing we ever see in Surrey, UK! Theyre like dolls houses almost!
I adore those massive topshop wooden sandals on your sidebar too.. mmmm but too expensive :(

At first I thought you were wearing a dress! The belt really makes the top and skirt look perfect together. LOVETH those shoes, lady. Looks like a fabulous time :)
I love the pattern mixing in today's outfit! Who would have thought you could pair two striped items? You did it beautifully!
