A piece worth its stripes.
Like a black belt, LBD, or cozy cashmere sweater, a striped shirt is one of those wardrobe staples we can never have enough of. Whether in the form of a button-down, tee, polo shirt, or tank top, there's no stripe left behind. The easy pattern is wearable every day of the year, but we can probably all agree that it hits different in summer, when nautical vibes are at their peak. Sweatshirt
One thing we love about stripes is how versatile they are; they can go preppy (think lunch in Nantucket), crisp and business-like, or classically French (brief history lesson: Breton stripes are named for Brittany, France, and the sailor shirts were the official uniform of the French navy for 150 years. Chic!).
