Sure, we all know what wardrobe essentials for work professional women are supposed to have in their closets, but if you’re buying one for the first time or replacing one you’ve worn into the ground, it can be a pain to find exactly the right incarnation in stores. In “The Hunt,” we search the stores for a basic item that every woman should have.

Hunting for cute striped tops for work? They’re a great way for a spring refresh — we’re rounding up a few favorites. Which are yours?

Cute Striped Tops for Work

Boden’s Ella Tee

If you’re looking for stripes, obviously one of your first stops must be Boden — they have such a joyful, happy vibe in general, with lots of bright stripes for spring.

I love this elevated-yet-basic Breton tee. It’s $42 and comes in sizes 0-22, in 8 different striped colorways.

Quince’s Cashmere Tee

First up: Quince’s lovely striped cashmere tee. Sweater tees are great for white tops because they tend to be more opaque than a lot of blouses, and they’re effortlessly polished.

The sweater is $50 at Quince, available in sizes XS-XL. The sweater actually comes in 15 colors, including 3 striped patterns.

J.Crew’s Emilie Sweater Jacket

We’ve featured this sweater lady jacket from J.Crew before, but it’s worth mentioning now because it’s on such a great sale: it was $138, but is now $64.50, with most sizes left.

J.Crew Factory also has a plethora of cute striped tops for work!

Ann Taylor’s Stripe Button Knit Jacket

I’m torn between the beige and white version of this knit jacket from Ann Taylor — and the more maximalist black and white one. (The purple and white one, on final sale for $25, is also great, tbh.)

The sweater is an online exclusive, available in classic and petite sizes XXS-XXL for $75.

Sézane’s Colette Marinière Top

Something I’m noticing a lot this season — lots and lots of layered looks like this one, featuring everyone’s favorite crisp button-front blouse. (Stay tuned for an updated roundup!)

Obviously if you’re looking for stripes you should consider the French stores — this Sézane top looks perfect, and I like how you can wear it a number of different ways. (LOVE it styled with pinstriped pants, as well as the cream stripes vs the white blouse.)

The top is $100, available in 6 colorways and sizes XXS-XXXL.

La Ligne’s Mini-Marina Sweater

I’ve been drooling over La Ligne’s stripey sweaters for a while — I love this mini stripe patterned sweater in 100% cotton. I love the details like the bands at the neck, hem and cuffs, as well as the purposely wide neckline and sleeves. So chic!

The sweater is available for $225 in four striped colorways and sizes XXS-XL.

A.L.C.’s Francis Top

If you’re in a really casual office (or plan to wear it with a blazer), I like this navy and white striped top from A.L.C. — it feels on trend yet classic.

It’s $295 at Shopbop, available in sizes XS-XL.
