Stripes: black and white bands up and down, sideways, horizontal, criss-crossed, targets, whatever – simple patterns are in.
It doesn’t matter if they’re worn on t-shirts, skirts, blouses, button-downs, v-necks, or if it’s simply a white shirt and black pants. Black and white stripes, the zebra look, is a fairly conservative style, and will be sure to score you points with any soccer crowd. It’s not expensive to assemble either.
White is perfect for the summertime, and the powerful darker shades balance the absence of color so that you can get away with wearing the outfit at night or during the day. More importantly, this continues our spring and summertime obsession with minimalism and simplicity.
Once you have the basic idea in mind you cant take it anywhere – particularly hot are lingerie styles – think black bra with white top, or a side bearing tank, and military, where you can don a light pant and pair it with a striped shirt.
Best of all, this style calls for ease and grace, so you can’t try too hard or mess that up. It’s about being comfortable and looking good. So go ahead and get creative with less.
