Stripes on stripes

This outfit is one I've had saved for a couple of months now, and I could not wait to wear it! Unlike some other outfits, this one I was still pleased with after putting everything together. I know it's a little unorthodox to pair a striped scarf with a striped top, but I liked how this looked together since the stripes in the scarf are lighter than the stripes in the top. It's fun and unexpected to me. I like sharing my more "experimental" outfits on here as a way of figuring out what works and what doesn't (and looking back at the experiments I've tried!).
