I've Never Regretted Buying This Shirt Style—Here Are 20 of the Best

We often use the term 'wardrobe staples' here at Who What Wear—as much as we adore trends, it's those versatile, love-forever buys that set our pulses racing—but we're not just talking about block-coloured basics and denim. We've also deemed the odd printed piece worthy of being welcomed into this category. 

An example is the striped shirt. Usually discarded in favour of the classic white button-down or a Breton, this specific style sits somewhere in the middle. Perhaps people have written it off as too corporate; and it's true, Pam Beesly sports her fair share in The Office, but I'm here to prove that the striped shirt is actually far more flexible than you realise. Whether you wear it with straight-leg jeans or a longline skirt, this timeless top has all the qualities we look for in a wardrobe mainstay, and it's easy to incorporate into all sorts of outfits.

As always, we've consulted some of our most-trusted influencers for their expert styling insights. Scroll on to see this underrated essential in action, then shop our favourites below.
