Patriotism is alive and well in the People’s Republic of Berkeley if the display of red, white and blue during the city’s Fourth of July festivities was any indication.

I know my closet is filling up with bold stripes and I’m finding one of my favorite ways to wear them are together. Layering stripes — think black and white striped cardigan over thick green and blue striped tunic, or vertical striped pants with a horizontal top — is a fresh way to update the classic motif.
Or, go the deconstructed route, like many of the families at the Berkeley Hills BBQ I attended did: each family member representing one color of Old Glory.
