If you’re wondering how to look flawless as we embrace the rest of the summer, try turning to the striped skirt as a sartorial essential. Although stripes typically return every season as a sartorial must-have, they have become a celebrity wardrobe staple for Summer 2017. In fact, stripy skirts have been spotted on Hollywood trendsetters like Emma Roberts and Vanessa Hudgens. For anyone thinking of ways to embrace this look right now, try drawing your sartorial cues from these two stunning style icons.

Roberts proved that head-to-toe stripes don’t necessarily have to be a fashion faux pas. The 26-year-old actress is perfectly adorable in this red and yellow vertical striped crop top, paired with a matching miniskirt. Although the colour combination may initially seem overwhelming, the star makes it look wearable with minimal accessories. A simple chain necklace, leather clogs and a woven straw bag all complete her summery, understated look of the day.

If you’re wondering how to transform stripes into a bohemian chic statement, turn to Vanessa Hudgens. The beautiful brunette star paired an orange and black diagonal striped maxi skirt with a strapless black crop top. For a finishing touch, her flat black sandals, metallic choker necklace and black shoulder bag help to seal the deal.
