How to rock stripes

Stripes have been cool since 1858. And they’re going to stay that way. Here’s a bit about different types of stripes - and how to style them in a modern way. 

Classic stripes (Breton)

Horizontal, usually navy/white. French feel - maybe even a bit of a sailor vibe. Style them with jeans - or more classic suit pants for French elegance...

Our fave picks: Mynte Stripe Tee & Lykke stripe tee

Narrow stripes

More subtle stripes that are thinner.. They feel simple and classic! Style them with a pair of light jeans or jorts..

Our fave picks; Thea short-sleeved + Thea long-sleeved + Luna tank top

Bold stripes

Thicker, wider stripes -> more of a statement. If you’re feeling a little bolder - go for some louder stripes..

Our fave picks; Mynte wide stripes + Mynte stripe tees + Nadia stripe

Styling tips

Remember that there are no rules when it comes to your own, personal style! Below are some best-practice tips - if you’re unsure how to style stripes;

• One striped piece per outfit. Don’t wear stripes on stripes. It can be almost too much. Unless you’re going for the more-is-more vibe..
• Pair with solids - Striped top + solid bottom. Let the stripes be the focus.
• Neutral combos Navy/white stripes + light jeans = classic... & Black/white stripes + black jeans = monochrome

Styling is everything

Stripes are fail-safe. Invest in 2–3 striped styles in different color combinations, and you’ll have timeless basics that always work. Style them according to your mood;

• Casual: Mynte Stripe Tee + Esther Jeans + sneakers
• Layered: Thea Stripe - under a denim jacket and with a denim skirt
• Polished: Striped top (tucked) + suit pants and a slightly dressier shoe

Remember to have fun with the styling!
