Striped sweaters are a true wardrobe staple, which is why one is never enough! Spring is the perfect time to invest in striped sweaters and knitwear, since many of them are on sale and also because they look more stylish in summer than these as pieces combined with white jeans, shorts or even swimsuits. These are the styles I have on my wish list right now, from designer to luxury, for under $50.

How to style striped sweaters | 16 Striped Sweater Outfits for All Seasons

Striped sweaters are so versatile, you'll probably wonder why you've never worn them before. Unless you already own it and then you're preaching to the choir. A navy and white striped Breton top will always be my favorite way to wear this style, but there are many other color combinations now, so choose what you like best.

There are plenty of outfit ideas here on how to style a striped sweater, from more casual celebrity-inspired looks, like Kaia Gerbers' sweater and joggers, to dressier looks.

Classic and casual style.

For the ultimate classic casual ensemble, pair them with a simple pair of tailored solid wash jeans and ballet flats.

Coordinated chic

If you're as big a fan of coordinating outfits as I am, look for sets that match. Whether it's a sweater, a t-shirt, or a tank top and matching skirt. It makes planning an outfit easy, looks elegant and edgy. This top isn't technically a sweater, but I wanted to share more options with you.

Women's Transitional Striped Sweater Set

For an on-trend transitional seasonal look, pair an oversized sweater with tailored shorts and knee-high boots.

How to Style a Women's Striped Sweater Like a Royal

For inspiration from royal outfits, Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales, has worn classic striped prints on numerous occasions. To get her look, she pairs a lightweight black and white striped sweater with black pants and a simple black leather belt.

One layering option is to add a navy or black blazer to match the navy or black and white striped turtleneck you have, with pants and ankle boots, loafers or heels. Kate Middleton has worn this look with navy blue jeans, a navy blazer and navy and cork wedges.

Another Kate Middleton outfit, pair your striped top with tailored white shorts with gold details or with denim shorts for a more casual look. If you're going to layer, try pairing a white tank top under your striped sweater for cool summer days and nights. It's a timeless style that always looks expensive.

Striped sweater set idea for Parisian chic woman

For a Parisian chic look, wear loose striped turtleneck sweaters and matching skinny pants or jeans, a navy or neutral trench coat, and designer boots.

Striped sweater + skirt = fresh feminine style

They don't have to be just shorts or pants, they look equally great with A-line skirts or denim midi or maxi skirts. Just make sure the proportions are balanced and don't use 2 oversized pieces.

Chanel Inspired Women's Striped Sweater Set

For a Chanel-inspired look, pair it with skinny pants and two-tone slingbacks. It doesn't matter if they are flat shoes or heels, but use 2 or 3 colors in total for this overall look.

How to Style a Striped Sweater Like Bridget Bardot

Take inspiration from Brigitte Bardot's style and pair your striped knitwear with a wide navy headband and slim-fit dark jeans or pants.

Combination of casual and comfortable outfit.

Pair a longer top with black leggings and ankle boots like Nina Dobrev. It's comfortable and casual, but looks more sophisticated than a basic t-shirt or hoodie. It is a great travel or airport outfit.

Throw on a crisp white shirt underneath for a smart-casual look. Heels will make it more sophisticated, sneakers an expected casual and effortless look.

They also work well in summer as beach swimwear when temperatures drop as the sun sets. I love this versatile set (sold separately) for retro vibes from Givenchy and it's on sale.

All jean washes tend to work well with this style. From light washes with an oversized fit to darker washes with a more tucked in and belted style.

One of my favorite striped sweater outfits is a tighter style top or at least half tucked into white or ecru wide leg pants.
