How To Wear Stripes In Style

Darpan News Desk IANS, 15 May, 2015 11:14 AM

Stripes are fitting for any occasion -- whether it's a casual daytime jaunt or a sophisticated dinner date -- so whatever colour combination takes your fancy, walk the line in summer's most stylish stripes.

Former Made In Chelsea star Ashley James pulled off the look when she attended a show wearing a striped Oasis dress with white sandals and a chunky necklace.

Here are tips on how one can wear this trend on three different occasions, reports mirror.co.uk.

* For the office: The classic shift becomes a summertime staple when you add a stripe. Earn extra style points in the office by pairing with wedges to elongate those pins.

* For a weekend lunch date: Make this season’s bright stripes work for your weekend wardrobe by teaming them with white Capris - an easy, effortless approach to the trend.

* For an evening out: For luxe evening dressing, choose striped pieces in muted colours. This statement skirt looks catwalk-worthy when worn with metallic accessories.
