Style Essential: The Striped Top

What is it about striped tops that always look so cool? Of all of my essential wardrobe staples, my most loyal, go-to piece is the classic stripe top. I have somewhat scatty tendencies so I like to keep my life as organised as I can, but one of the things that I must keep organised is my wardrobe. I'm talking serious colour and pattern coordination. If you were to open my wardrobe right now you'd see an entire section dedicated to striped things. 

Do I really need that many striped tops? Oh but of course! Well you certainly need a wide striped top, and a thin striped top... And a three-quarter sleeve, a short sleeve, a crop top, a Bardot neckline, a classic fisherman breton, a striped leotard, boat neck... I know you know what I mean. 

But why are they so popular? 

It's just so versatile. A striped breton top looks amazing from anything from jeans, denim cut offs, a tulle skirt (a-la-Carrie Bradshaw) or bold printed culottes. My go-to outfit in all fashion/last-minute/hungover/forgotten dates is always black skinny jeans, striped tee, and trench coat. It looks so classically parisian: who doesn't want a bit of french-girl chic in their wardrobes?
