Every summer, there’s that one piece I reach for again and again—and this year, it’s this blue and white striped button-up. It’s lightweight, breathable, and easy to throw on with anything.
I’m always looking for pieces that can do a little bit of everything, and this striped linen blend button-up has been a go-to for me this spring.
It’s polished but relaxed, perfect for layering or wearing on its own, and somehow makes even jeans and sandals feel put together.
If you’re looking to simplify your summer closet with something versatile and stylish, this is the kind of top that’ll get worn on repeat.
My Favorite Versatile and Elevated Summer Top
If you want to dress this top down a bit, try it with a pair of utility pants. I think it looks really chic and cool with these pants, and then I added a block heeled sandal for a little elevation. I’d absolutely wear this to brunch with friends, for a casual work day, or even for a casual date night.
