Nautical Stripes: Stripes aren’t just basic — they’re a whole summer vibe.

When we think of summer fashion, stripes always come to mind. Especially those crisp blue-and-white nautical stripes — they evoke sunshine, sea breeze, and the kind of carefree elegance you’d find on a boat in the Mediterranean. So how do you wear nautical stripes without looking too “uniform”? Here’s your go-to guide to styling stripes this summer — from tops and bottoms to flowy skirts.

Striped Tops: Fresh from the first glance 1. Classic Striped Tee The blue-and-white or black-and-white striped T-shirt is timeless. • Style tip: Pair it with white jeans, tailored shorts, or linen trousers for a clean, coastal look. • Add a pop: Tuck it in and accessorize with gold jewelry or a red lip to elevate the basics.

2. Striped Tank or Cami Tight-fit striped tanks are perfect for showing a little skin while staying casual. • Great for pairing with high-waisted pants or a breezy skirt for a French-girl feel.

3. Striped Shirt (Oversized) An oversized striped button-down doubles as a breezy top or a beach cover-up. • Wear it over a swimsuit or with denim shorts — it’s versatile and effortlessly cool

Striped Bottoms: Easygoing with a twist 1. Striped Shorts Go for high-waisted, cotton or linen pieces. • Pair with a solid tank or crop top — comfortable yet eye-catching for sunny days out.

2. Striped Trousers Vertical stripes help elongate the legs — ideal for a more polished summer look. • Add minimal sandals or mules and you’re ready for brunch or a sunset walk.

Striped Skirts: Flowy, feminine, and photogenic 1. Maxi Skirts Think wavy lines, vertical stripes, or color-blocked patterns. • These look best with a simple tank top or a tied shirt. • Bonus: They catch the wind beautifully in photos

2. Striped Dresses Don’t feel like coordinating? Just throw on a striped dress. • Look for a cinched waist and soft fabric for that laid-back yet flattering silhouette.

Quick Tips: How to wear stripes without looking wide? • Vertical stripes = slimming and elongating (perfect for skirts or trousers) • Horizontal stripes = go for thinner lines to avoid bulk • Stick to a coordinated palette — blue, white, and neutrals always look put-together

• Stripes are timeless, but never boring • Small details (cut, fit, or accessories) make all the difference • Nautical stripes can take you from the beach to brunch effortlessly ⸻ So this summer, add a little “linear logic” to your wardrobe Put on your stripes and catch that breeze — whether it’s for a vacation or just a stylish everyday look.
