Striped Shirt Outfit Ideas: Work vs Weekend (Style Guide 2025)

Almost everyone has at least one striped shirt in their closet. If you’re wondering how to style yours, this post has you covered! Today, I’m sharing Striped Shirt Outfits: Work vs Weekend. With just a few simple swaps, the same striped shirt can go from polished office-ready looks to relaxed weekend vibes.

I’m styling three different striped shirts: a striped sweater top, a classic black-and-white striped tee, and a blue-and-white striped button-down. With a little creativity, these versatile pieces will never feel repetitive; instead, they’ll always look fresh, fun, and functional. Outfit links are included below each look for your convenience.

Striped Sweater Top Outfits

A striped sweater top pairs beautifully with white trousers for a clean, harmonious outfit. To pop the outfit, a colorful blazer is all you need. But to keep it professional, reach out for the neutral color palette. I’ve styled it with a navy blazer for a neutral yet polished finish. Classic pumps, an elegant bag, and simple hoops complete the office look.

For the weekend, trade in the neutrals for color. Pairing the same striped top with bold red trousers instantly energizes the look. Red pumps add a chic touch, while stacked bracelets, hoop earrings, and a crossbody bag keep it stylish yet relaxed.

For fall or winter, layer with a leather jacket for an edgier vibe; perfect for concerts. If your striped sweater is sleeveless, try wearing it over a crisp white shirt for extra versatility.

For work, think polished yet feminine. Instead of a plain white tee, elevate your outfit with a black-and-white striped tee tucked into a flowy white A-line skirt. Cinch the waist with a belt and top it off with a light pink cropped blazer. Black pumps and a structured black tote bring the whole look together, while elegant earrings add just the right finishing touch.

Olive green pairs beautifully with stripes, making it a great weekend option. Here, I’ve styled the striped tee with an olive skirt that has a little more pleats, extra flair and some fun button details to elevate the overall look. A cropped denim jacket adds casual charm, while a brown belt pops perfectly against the olive tone. Finish the look with stacked bracelets, earrings, a crossbody bag, and brown boots for a relaxed yet stylish weekend outfit.

Striped Button-Down Shirt Outfits

For the office, a striped button-down shirt always looks sharp. To elevate the outfit, I paired a blue-and-white striped shirt with trousers in the same hue for a sleek, monochromatic effect. If you can’t find an exact match, a subtle shade difference works just as well. Neutral trousers are also a timeless option.

To play with the tone-on-tone effect, I added a blue bag and blue sunglasses. Heeled sandals and statement earrings complete the professional yet modern look.

For the weekend, balance bold stripes with soft tones. A blue-and-white striped shirt paired with a light pink skirt creates a dreamy, feminine outfit. Pink strappy sandals add polish, but you can swap them for simpler sandals if you prefer.

To enhance the soft, romantic vibe, I accessorized with pearls: a pearl bag, pearl earrings, and a pearl necklace. The result is an elegant and elevated weekend look.
