If you want to get in on the gingham trend, you definitely don’t have to stop at a shirt. There are tons of gingham dresses and skirts that make for really adorable outfits. The pattern can be made to look preppy and chic, or more fun and eclectic – you can decide based on what you wear the pieces with. There are so many different ways to style this print to make it look a lot more unique, which is one of the best things about it. And I’m betting that gingham will be just as popular in the fall as it has been this summer. Why not pick up a gingham dress or skirt during all of the end of season sales? So, if you’re now just as in love as I am, check out these style tips on how to wear gingham dresses and skirts:
1. Pair a gingham mini skirt with a graphic tee and sneakers for a casual and stylish look.
2. A lot of gingham skirts are black and white, but they don’t have to be. Choose a bright pattern, like this magenta skirt. It stands out a little more.
3. Mix it up and wear your gingham skirt with a striped top. Keeping the colors similar is a good way to keep it less overwhelming.
4. You can play around with that concept with accessories too, like wearing a gingham skirt with brightly patterned shoes.
5. Gingham is a pretty feminine pattern, so add some ~edge~ to it with something like a pair of combat boots. It’s unexpected and looks really cool.
6. Keep a gingham skirt preppy and summery by wearing it with a white tank, flat sandals, and a straw hat.
7. Add some fun layers to your gingham dress with an open plaid shirt. It looks like it wouldn’t work, but it results in a unique outfit.
