Chance is an online boutique inspired by the classic stripe. Created by former Kate Spade creative director Julia Leach, it features timeless striped t-shirts as well as other "essentials" hand-picked by Leach. I, for one, love the Vintage Vera Scarf ($55) and Cotton Voile Kerchiefs ($38).
The selection and website are really charming. Be sure to scroll through the Timeline for a visual history of the striped t-shirt in art, fashion and cinema. And take a moment to read some of the great writing used to describe the collection.
