1 Piece 4 Ways: Striped Linen-Blend Top
I found a gorgeous Striped Linen-Blend Top that is only $34.99 (today it is on sale for 20% off with code “SWEET”). It reminds me of a top you would find at Madewell, but it is at Old Navy! The blue stripes top is shown and they also have it in red stripes.
I thought I would create 4 outfits to see how to wear this top, now with jeans and also with denim shorts and twill utility shorts. The clothes and shoes are all budget-friendly at Old Navy and the bags and accessories are from Madewell. So let’s get started…
All the outfits are casual and include bottoms, shoes, bags and accessories that can be worn with other tops in your closet. If the weather is still cool where you live, you can add this Twill Utility Jacket or this Ivory Shaker Stitch Cardigan to any of the outfits as an extra layer. If you wanted to dress up the top a bit, you can add these Navy Pixie Pants and these Beige Winslow Flats.
