Friday Fancies: Gorgeous Gingham!

Gingham


I was not the first to jump on the gingham bandwagon, but I have totally changed my tune! When I saw my sister Ellen come home with a few gingham shirts, I had a jealous sister moment (it's normal right?). Well time passed and I happened to get a gingham shirt as a gift (hooray!) and I have worn it a ton this summer, more than I ever thought I would! It's the perfect transition piece from spring to fall, and even in the winter, the black is definitely a go!

But presently, I can definitely take this look from now to later with just a few simple adjustments! Obviously, I'm still embracing summer to its fullest and not admitting that it's August and that there are only a few weeks of my favorite season left. See, I'm not admitting it! So I'd wear this outfit, right here right now. I love a great white skirt. However, I do love my fall wardrobe and I'd take these dreamy boots with this cozy sweater as a layer and enjoy those gorgeous fall colors. How about you? Are you a gingham person?

This weekend I'm planning on prepping for the start of my job next week, so excited! I'm also going to try to watch what's left of the Olympics and on Sunday my friends and I are seeing the band Train! So pumped! I hope you all have wonderful weekends as well!
