7 Ways to Wear Stripes This Summer
Classic Button Down
A striped button down shirt looks great any time of the year, but there’s something about wearing one in warm weather with white denim or a pair of shorts that really says ‘summer.’ They’re definitely one of the most timeless pieces you can have in your wardrobe.

Breezy Dress
Striped shirts are my favorite, but striped dresses are a close second. Wear them with a pair of sandals and a chic handbag for instant summer style. To ensure you’ll get the most wear for years, go for classic wrap or button-down styles—I found a lot of options here at all price points!

Stylish Scarf
A striped scarf is a great way to add a touch of pattern to solid tops or dresses. Finish off the look with a bold lip and sunglasses.

Casual Tee
A striped tee is a closet staple (that’s why I own at least ten of them!) Wear one alone or layer underneath a blazer or denim jacket—you can’t go wrong.

Polished Blazer
Whether bold or subtle, stripes look fabulous on a blazer. In the summer, I like to wear mine with denim to keep it casual.
Shop Striped Blazers
Cropped Pants
Cropped pants are so fun for summer, and even more so when they’re striped. My favorite styles have a high waist and wide leg like these that hits just above the ankle, and worn with heels or wedges they have a really leg-lengthening effect.

Lightweight Shorts
It doesn’t get much more easy-breezy than a pair of striped shorts in linen or light cotton fabric. Dress them up with heels and a nice top or go laidback with flats and a tee.
