How to Choose the Perfect Striped Shirt?

Stripes shirts are back in fashion and in today's blog post we'll tell you how to rock this trend.

Here are few steps which would help you choose the perfect striped shirt/top:

Color

A navy/white or black/white stripe combo is the easiest to style. Navy/white has more of a preppy or nautical vibe, while black/white can go chic or edgy depending on how you style it.

If you love colors, a pink/white or olive/white striped shirt would be so cute for spring!

Stripe Width

You’ve probably heard lots of warnings that horizontal stripes will make you look heavier. This can be mitigated by choosing the right stripe size. Very thin or very thick stripes do have a tendency to visually widen the body, but a medium stripe won’t have that effect.

Exceptions: If you’re petite, try out a thinner stripe. On the flip side, taller girls can get away with thicker stripes.

Material/Cut

We like striped shirts that are slightly boxy and made from a heavier knit. However, curvier girls or those with hourglass figures may want to look for a lighter knit that skims the body.

Sleeve Length/Neckline

A 3/4 length sleeve is the most versatile and traditional, although a striped tank or short sleeve tee can be great for hotter weather.

Most striped shirts have either a wide boatneck or a round crewneck. If you have broad shoulders, keep in mind that a boatneck can make your shoulders look wider.
