Gingham Girl

One of my favourite prints this season has to be gingham. There's something a bit country and western about it which appeals to my inner Dolly Parton. This cropped shirt from New Look (£17.99) that ties at the bottom makes me want to pull on my cowboy boots. (yes, I do still have a pair hidden away somewhere!) However, this weekend I went for a slightly tamer look and teamed it with pink trousers from next and a faux leather jacket from Missguided. I'm after a pair of chunky black trucker sandals that cost less than £30 but until I find those I settled for comfy ballet flats from next.

All dressed up with nowhere to go seems to be the story of my life at the moment so I need to start making more plans for Saturday afternoons. Ideas or suggestions are welcome!
