It’s D

A prepositional phrase is a modifying phrase consisting of a preposition and its object.
In option D, the preposition is the word "with", and its respective object is "the blue and white stripes".
Colors are considered adjectives, given they provide a description for the characteristics of a noun; "blue and white" are the adjectives for the noun "stripes" - referring to the stripes on the shirt in question.
