Stripes will never go out of style. While they are sometimes affiliated the a nautical theme, or have something classically French about them, there are plenty of ways to wear your stripes. They’re a great print to add some interest to your look, and depending on the width and colour, can either look corporate and polished, or striking and bold. Just remember the general belief: vertical stripes elongate your body and make you look taller. A versatile design, it can be toned down with solid colours, or teamed with simple accessories for any look and occasion — no wonder it has become such a style staple for many.
