I love stripes, like the French look generally but struggle with the perfect stripy top. Can be any colour and white not just navy, reasonably fitted, long enough so it doesn't ride up, either slash neck, v neck, or slightly off the shoulders (not t shirt neck as doesn't suit me) and good quality not too thick material. A lot I've tried are a bit frumpy or poor quality and bag easily. I'm size 8 but with d cup boobs and quite broad shoulders and a long neck. Not sea salt or Boden please...
