WANT: Rihanna's Striped Blazer

I tried to avoid it. I didn’t want to like it, but after about the 50th time hearing Rihanna’s latest hit “What’s My Name,” Featuring Drake I was hooked. ( I know, I know. I'm super late, right?) I mean seriously obsessed. It's number 1 on the  'On the Go' playlist in my Ipod and must listen to it at least 5 times a day! What’s more, I  even loaded up the video on Youtube a few weeks ago. (Of course, I HAD to see it. I sensed that with the heavy Caribbean vibe in the music there was bound to be some fab wardrobing in the video!)




The video is cute. Rihanna rocks. More importantly I am living for that striped blazer, right now! As soon as I saw it I envisioned mixing and matching it with tanks, and denim, cute shorts. It’s such a strong statement piece. Now I don’t know if this new interest is a reflection of my own Caribbean roots or a manifestation of my love of stripes! It’s probably a bit of both!

Check out the Polyvore set below for information on brands, prices, and shopping locations so you that you might find a Striped Blazer of your very own.
