Stripes are a critical part of a classic aesthetic. They can brighten and sharpen a wardrobe. White stripes can make great colors even better, and even make moderate colors acceptable. As with most classic attire, they can be dressed up or dressed down.
Here are a few thoughts:
- In more egalitarian styles, there usually should be only two colors. One color should be white, with the exception of the following pairs: pink and green, navy and pink, and blue and green.
- For "old school" items such as Repp Ties, University Scarves, Cricket Sweaters, Braces, etc, three colors can work;. when they do, the stripes tend to be vertical, or angled.
- Stripes should only be used with classic styles, including rugby shirts, jacket linings, crew neck sweaters, oxford shirts, polo shirts, and the occasional T-shirt.
- If you are unsure, the stripes should be of the same width.

Muffy with seeing photographs of you in your blog, its a shame that Andrew Wyeth never painted you! Could have been the next subject for an updated "Christina's World" painting! You need to summer on Mohegan Island, maybe Jamie Wyeth would be inspired to paint you!
