There are finally some signs that summer is approaching. While spring is still making its presence felt, stores are already in full summer mode. It helps that fashion is always at least a season ahead. Just look at all of the summer advertising campaigns fashion houses are putting out right now. The resort collections are also being presented everywhere from Lake Como to Florence. Another indication that temps will soon be heating up? All of the stylish gingham clothing and accessories currently dominating the market.
Just so there's no confusion, let's break down the popular pattern. Gingham is identified by its small checks usually featuring white and one other color. It's actually derived from a Dutch word that translates to "striped." Which partially explains why the term is often used interchangeably with plaid and check.
The most popular hues include red, blue and even green, but don't sleep on other options. Like pink, black and dark brown. There are plenty of matching sets in this category so feel free to indulge in an entire outfit, including footwear. Rocking more than one item is not a mandate, though. Since money is tight right now, treating yourself to one piece is perfectly acceptable.
