Stripes are a pattern I have had differing opinions about in the past, but this year, I find myself obsessed with them. Not only am I seeing stripes all over my social media feeds, but I’m also noticing them more and more in stores this season, too. It’s a pattern that will stay timeless for years to come, and that’s why I’m investing in a few striped pieces for spring.
I’ve found myself gravitating towards different variations of striped patterns — from pin stripe patterns, multi-width striped patterns, and unique stripe color combos. Tripes are simple, but can elevate the look and dimension of an outfit in a matter of minutes. Whether you’re looking for a cute striped blouse, button-up, or sweater, we’ve got you covered.

With chillier spring days ahead, I always like to have a few light sweaters on hand. I’m obsessed with this J.Crew Rollneck Sweater in the red-white-blue striped pattern. It’s so classic and cozy. However, there are light, patterned cashmere sweaters that are perfect for cooler days too.
