Summer's Coolest Stripes for Under $20

This summer, we basically want to live in stripes. Sure, nautical tanks are classic, but we’re loving lines on everything from snappy shoes to earthy shorts. The best part? They won’t break your budget and can be worn absolutely everywhere!
 
Slightly baggy shorts are THE look for showing off legs. This linen pair looks like ya hauled it back from somewhere way more exotic than the mall. Pair it with a dark top and amazing wedges and trot off into the sunset.


Oh boy! These sweet skimmers are a stylish alternative to flip-flops and are presh with all of summer’s swingy skirts. They also work with crisp shorts and a tank. Too cute.

Knot-y headbands are our new fave. You can rock ‘em with long and loose locks. Or, pull strands back into a bun and top it off with a sassy, stripe-y wrap.

 
What’s more classic than a summer skirt? This one is way versatile, but still comfy enough to toss over a bathing suit. Tuck a loose-fitting tank into it, step into some serious espadrilles and hit the boardwalk.

A tote is a must for warm weather, but we hate shelling out major buckaroos for bags. This Old Navy number has sherbet-y stripes and is insanely affordable. Hit the beach in style (and still have enough loot to buy a souvenir or two).
