How to Wear It: Navy Striped Shirt

I heard you all loud and clear when you told me via the comments on my 2013 resolutions that you all wanted more ideas for versatility in your wardrobe and you loved the “teaching” aspect of this blog.  Since I am not a millionaire, I also like to get a lot of wear out of all of my pieces, and one thing you can always find me wearing is a navy striped top.  I know it’s the preppy nature in me, but the classic feel of a navy shirt and the fact that you can wear it so many ways is just so attractive to me.  I do have other striped shirts, but the navy will always be #1 in my book.

You can wear it for work and on the weekends, you can wear it with tons of colors, and you can make it look a bit edgy or full-on preppy.  I love how it looks with a mustard skirt and a tweed jacket.  A classic camel ballet flat with tie bow rounds out the look really well.  You can also wear it with some destroyed skinny denim (LOVE THESE), an army jacket, and ankle length boots (here on sale for $87!) for a stylish yet casual look.  Lastly, I love navy with a bright pair of corduroy pants, a jean jacket, and some clean white converses!

I know some of you also have some other good ways to wear a navy striped shirt, so feel free to share in the comments!
