Spring runways were bursting with stripes, from Luisa Beccaria's whimsy, romantic take to Marc Jacobs' 60's jail house stripe versions. The graphic element of today's stripe can really update any outfit and bring it into the season. I don’t know what it is about stripes, but I LOVE THEM! I'm obsessed with casual Parisian style circa 1970. My weekend uniform is a striped t-shirt, skinny dark jeans & ballet flats. Comfortable yet tres chic.
A good striped tee can pull any look together (office, weekend, even nighttime!). With the help of my fashionable co-workers, we put together a few looks on how I love to style my fave striped tee.
How chic does Jenna look for a day at work? Her nautical blazer keeps the look summery, and her bright pencil skirt adds a dose of professional color. Gold buttons are elegant and work appropriate.
Yes, a t-shirt can work for night. A high-low skirt in silk chiffon totally dresses up the cotton tee, and statement earrings and a metallic clutch say Lindsey's heading out for a fabulous night on the town.
When I need to add a little oomph to my t-shirt I throw on a big chunky necklace. Instant glamour.
What’s your vote on spring stripes? Yay or nay? How do you style your stripes?
