One of my fashion staples last month was the long-sleeve striped shirt. Stripes are all over the place this season. As versatile as they are, here are a few tips on how to wear striped tops right now:
1. Let the pattern peek through
A cotton trench is perfect for a breezy evening. Stripes add a sporty element to the classic trench, and the overall look is polished and feminine.
2. Play up the nautical look with shorts
Sailor shorts - especially high waist sailor shorts - give the illusion of height, making legs appear longer. This look is especially flattering with nude pumps or flats.
3. Add something extra girlie
Contrast is always a good thing. If you’re going boyish with sporty tees and boyfriend jeans, my recommendation is to wear shoes that are decidedly feminine. Glitter flats are always fun, and I like Stuart Weitzman’s Flora Dress Shoes.

It’s actually a little embarrassing how many striped tops I have–thanks for these ideas on how to mix ‘em up a little! Especially love the second look with the high-waisted nautical shorts. Adorbs!
really cute looks
i love these looks! i’m so into stripes lately, it’s nice to get some new ideas on how to wear one. i particularly like them peeking out from the sleeves of the trench. ~joelle
