Two Ways To Wear Gingham

Did I say before how much I love a summer holiday wardrobe? Simple clothes that work as well with sandals as they do with bare feet. This gingham number was a perfect pick for while we were in Donegal, especially since gingham has always been an iconic summer pattern. With a full skirt and off-the-shoulder cut like this it's especially reminiscent of Brigitte Bardot in her style hey-day which she made gingham mainstream--she even wore a gingham wedding dress. I don't quite have the Bardot-worthy big hair (more wind-tangled), but with a bit of winged eyeliner and a cateye it's clear to see why she's still a major style icon to me. Now compare this easy-breezy gingham...
