S2E4: Carla, Vertical Stripes

Vertical stripes. You rarely see them, but when you do, they always look good. Kind of like zebras.

Modern options below. Highlight: NSF Clothing‘s almost identical Sina Stripe Top, right in the center. Read about the rad California company here.

1. Rag & Bone Smoking Shirt. 2. Joie Peterson B Top in Dark Navy. 3. Faliero Sarti Phil Scarf. 4. NSF Sina Stripe Top. 5. J. Crew Boy Shirt in Stripe Linen. 6. Steve Mono Sara L2 Clutch. 7. Zara Wide Stripe Blazer and Wide Stripe Trousers.

Here’s to horizontal stripes’ more flattering sister!

Cheers,

Chloe

Carla Tortelli

Boyfriend jeans don’t look great on those of us with Carla Tortelli’s stature. We 5’3″-ers and below don’t need any help looking short by wearing oversized cuffed pants. Boyfriend shirts, on the other hand, are universally flattering.

Maybe her sleazy ex-husband left it, maybe she found it in the bar’s lost & found. Either way, Carla’s men-at-work tee-shirt look fits her masculine (and emasculating) personality to a tee (pun intended).
