It’s Shaping Up To Be A Good Season For Stripes…
Stripes are a style perennial, but seem to be particularly on-trend for Spring, especially in high-contrast black/white and navy/white combos. No matter your stripe preference, there’s a lot to love this in this season’s crop.

A v-neck and diagonal stripes are flattering elements on this cotton cardigan.
A sharp navy and white canvas tote channels Cape Cod, or the Cote d’Azur.
This 10% cashmere tee ticks all of the boxes: long sleeves, soft fabric, and slim stripes (which I find more flattering and easier to wear). Great transitional season and/or travel piece!
If you prefer your stripes with a bit more color, here’s a spring-weight scarf with some cheery hues.
Does your spring wishlist include a cute raincoat? Wish granted!
I love the sharp and modern look of the gradient stripes on this long cardigan! (Plus-size)
When it comes to stripes, do you prefer the classics or something unexpected?

Great selection here. As you say, stripes never go out of style.
Thanks for all these stripes. As in most fashion categories, I prefer classics. But who could turn down that colorful, striped scarf! Lovely.
I have a ton of stripes and love them. A couple more can’t hurt. And I LOVE the scarf. So many things it would work with…
I love striped everything! There are some great choices here. I especially love the diagonal jacket.
I wear two striped pieces: my “French sailor’s shirt” and my tiger-striped scarf. The tiger is our university mascot so that scarf is for school occasions — I’ve never tried them together (and probably won’t).
After placing an order for the JCrew cashmere T… I realized I have purchased maybe 5 navy stripe tops in the past 2 months or so my only regret was Dang! I should have gotten something with a red stripe!
