A stripe for an informal video day

The striped top gives an otherwise simple chinos outfit a clear visual rhythm. Loafers keep it ready for a quick errand between remote meetings.

Check it on you

Check whether the stripe pattern looks distracting on your own camera; a plain top is an easy alternative. Choose a waistband comfortable for your desk.

Make it work with what you own

Use a plain T-shirt in the same colours. Add the blazer if an in-person meeting needs a more finished layer.

Before you leave: test reaching, sitting and walking. Follow your own garment care labels. Weather suitability depends on the actual clothes and conditions; this look has no warmth or waterproof rating.
