A mystery for our Monday…
Why are green & white stripes all the rage right now?
Between the tights & the over the knees we sell more green & white stripes than almost anything else (except maybe the black M40s). Every single day people order them, sometimes more than one pair. Saturday I looked over at Bsti in shipping and said “We just got a $20 order, can you guess what it is?” he jokingly replied “green stripes, green stripes & more green stripes…” and he was right! we sell that many. The biggest reason I’ve heard is to complete a Strawberry Shortcake outfit, but they can’t all be dressing like Strawberry Shortcake can they? Anyone know any other great reasons to wear green & white stripes?

My daughter is going to be Strawberry Shortcake for Halloween this year and its IMPOSSIBLE to find childs green & white striped tights. Why? Someone mentioned trying the adult ones. The girl on the phone was so sweet and helpful, and although a bit big, its gonna work. Thanks!

green has been one of the most underappreciated colors in fashion (i’ve been theorizing this for awhile dun dun dun). and people are finally realizing ‘I don’t have enough green in my closet!!!’ so they run out, or log on, and buy green stuff. and yeah thats what happens, cause when you think about it green is such a fun color everyone needs a little bit of it, ya know?
