Go Gingham

Get ready for picnic season with spring’s favorite print: gingham. Here are five fun ways to add it to your look right now, courtesy of your friends at Fashion Fabrics Club.

Leggings

Leggings are the ultimate lounging piece, but in a fun pattern like gingham, they suddenly become day date worthy. Let them be the star of the show and pair with simple extras like a solid black T and tailored flats.

Shirtdress

For the perfect spring-summer ensemble use a crisp cotton gingham in a cute shirtdress style. With its ease of wear and instant full-on look appeal, you’re sure to put this one-piece wonder on repeat this season.

Overalls

Combine two of the season’s big trends into one seriously chic look: overalls and gingham. Traditional denim overalls have a more laidback appeal, but when the piece is rendered in striking gingham it feels much more polished…even if you decide to pair it with sneakers.

Blazer

The perfect pop to a monochrome look: a colored gingham blazer. It’s an instant way to give your winter whites a spring-ready jolt of chic.

Accent

If you don’t want to take a full dive into the gingham pool, you can still rock the trend with a gingham accent: a headband, a pair of shoes, or an interesting lacing detail like this denim top shown here. The options are endless.
