Stripes Are A Lifestyle

T by Alexander WangWhy are the French known for their stripes? Here's some brief history: back in the day, the striped shirt was unique to navy uniforms so that any sailor who fell overboard could be easily spotted. Now the simplistic design reigns the streets of Paris and is the very reason why you should adopt this fundamental piece. We know that horizontal stripes may not be the most flattering for your figure, so avoid form-fitting shirts and stick to a loose tee that's comfortable and effortless. T by Alexander Wang, $150
