Earn Your Stripes

Hi Everyone!

Stripes truly embody classic American style. They remind us of sailing, fourth of July, and (duh) the American flag! Iconic celebrities like Audrey Hepburn and Jackie Onassis display that quintessential American look: throw on a striped tee and a pair of jeans for a chic and simple outfit. Today, we have more options than we know what to do with when it comes to stripes! To take the guessing game out of making these looks, I compiled some stripe essentials, classic pairings, and more bold pairings. Don't be afraid to mix stripes with another pattern, like polka dots, in the same color family and scale.
