How to Wear Black and White Stripes for the Summer

Happy first Monday of July! I hope you had a fun and eventful 4th of July weekend. We made it to another month, and I look forward to the great things to come for you and for me. Let's get into today's blog post shall we!

Stripes are one of my favorite prints of all time. They are versatile, come in a variety of colors, and can be worn year-round. Stripes are a great addition to your wardrobe because they are a basic essential staple that you need. Especially black and white stripes. Today on the blog I will share how you can wear black and white stripes for the Summer.

1. Striped Dress

Summertime calls for dresses and this dress is it. One way how to wear black and white for the summer is a black and white stripe dress. This flowy dress is a great addition to add to your wardrobe this summer. Pair this look with sandals and a straw wide brim visor, and you are ready for a casual day running errands or a walk alongside the beach.

2. Striped Tops

There is nothing like having a stripe top that can go with any type of bottoms. The second way to wear black and white stripes for the summer is a striped vest. A striped vest can be worn professionally or casually. Since it is the summer, I paired the look with a long denim skirt to keep the capsule wardrobe in rotation. Make the look pop with some glam gold accessories.

This look is my favorite because it plays off of prints. Listen, do not be afraid of pairing two different types of prints together. What I love about both the black and white stripe top and camouflage pants is that they are both a neutral print and can work together. Pair the two prints with a bold color and that is how to wear black and white stripes for the summer.  Now tell me, where are we wearing this look to?

3. Striped Accessories

The final way on how to wear black and white stripes for the summer is in your accessories. If you are a minimalist, like me a bit, then adding a pop of something to make your outfit stand out is fun and shows personality. This simple denim dress with a black mule is the perfect way to make this happen. Because the jewelry is eye catching it will grab people's attention from the earrings to your arm where you hold your black and white clutch. Great attention grabber for sure.
