StriPe a pose.

There were a few years there when I genuinely despised the stripe. 

Rag & Bone

In fact, the last time I remember looking fondly on said strip of fabric was while purchasing the matching Target track suit I just absolutely had to have.

Rag & Bone

When I was 8. 

After that (excluding the solid 5 months I spent swathed in this oh-so-flattering sweatsuit), the side stripe faded into nothing more than a prime piece of nineties nostalgia.

Until now. 

Call it what you will :  tuxedo pant, sportswear, marching band attire - I think I may be in love. 

Or at the very least, in like.

So today, let's salute the stripe.

Because by tomorrow, it'll be just one more painfully-recalled Target regret on my ever-expanding list.
