People Editorial Guidelines Published on April 13, 2024 08:30PM EDT Photo: Leon Bennett / Getty Images / People / Madison Woiten We all know Oprah is a guru when it comes to life advice, but she’s also been known to rock some smart fashion trends. Case in point? During a recent girls’ trip to Japan, we couldn’t help but admire her crisp yet casual look, which consisted of white cargo pants and a striped button-down. Oprah’s been spotted in striped tops multiple times, including last year when she attended the Louis Vuitton Cruise fashion show in an oversized pinstripe button-down. She also wore the same light blue shirt while hugging her BFF Gayle in a 2020 Instagram post and in 2021 to promote her book club. And in 2019 she posed with Stephen Colbert in a multi-colored stripe style.
