The checked shirt

check-it out!

By ELLE UK and NoneUpdated: 10 April 2013

The perfect outfit for Spring's tricky weather, this look is easy to wear and laid back without being boring.

When it comes to the checked shirts, don't shy away from mixing prints; pair it up with stripes or florals. Combine different textures too: a pair of jeans in a bold wash (like these two-tone bootleg jeans from MIH), gold jewellery and a floral court shoe are the perfect masculine/feminine mash-up. For freshness and modernity, white sunglasses complete the look.
