If you’ve got a blue striped shirt hanging in your closet and you’re not sure what to do with it—this one’s for you. The blue striped button-down is one of those pieces that just works. It’s not flashy, but it makes you look like you know what you’re doing. You can wear it tucked or untucked, open or buttoned, dressed up or completely casual. And the best part? It plays well with basically everything in your closet. Here’s how to style a blue striped shirt without overthinking it!

Running out for coffee?
Throw it over a tank with some easy shorts, canvas sneakers, and a ball cap. Looks like effort, feels like a Saturday morning.

Headed on a spring trip?
Pair it with light shorts, Birks, and a tote bag—it’s a vacation move that doesn’t scream “tourist.”

Meeting at the office?
Tuck it into some tailored navy trousers, add a belt, loafers, and a utility jacket for structure. Clean, sharp, no tie necessary.

Casual Friday
It layers great under a textured crewneck with jeans. A pair of straight fit medium wash blue jeans is perfect to feel comfortable but look professional.

Spring Date or Lunch Out
Go with cream denim, a navy cardigan, and low-profile sneakers. It’s laid-back but thoughtful.

Weekend Errands or Sunday brunch?
Jeans, a tank, white sneakers, and maybe a military jacket if it’s chilly. You already own these pieces—this just pulls them together.

Bottom line: this shirt gives you options. I hope you can see just how easy it is to style a blue striped shirt! Whether you’re easing into better style or just want to simplify your wardrobe, this one shirt can cover a full week of outfits without repeating a look. And once you get comfortable with it? You’ll start to see how easy it is to build better outfits with just a few small tweaks.
