The in-between season is just around the corner. And with it comes the usual style dilemma of this time of year: “What should I wear?”. In the morning it starts to cool down, but by noon it’s still summer. In light of this, the best thing is to reach for timeless basics, like the striped T-shirt.

This garment, once again, reinvents itself for the first days of autumn. There is no doubt that this type of T-shirts, in its most nautical version, has become the star piece you should wear with all your daily looks. A good alternative to the trusty, and sometimes boring, white T-shirt.

And it’s not just us saying it—your favorite stores, like Zara, Mango or Massimo Dutti, are on your side. Right now there are so many options available that it’s almost impossible not to end up finding the perfect striped T-shirt for your silhouette.
