black gingham two ways
April 11th, 2011
I happened to wear black gingham in different ways in recent days. One a more feminine/vintage look on a picnic with Ben, and the second a mix of modern and vintage in a menswear style for a day shopping with a friend. I guess the somewhat chilly and cloudy days here meant black gingham was going to be the pick.
black gingham 50s dress with amazing detail at the bottom of the skirt: a vintage store in Santa Cruz, CA
white espadrilles: ebay
vintage hat: from my mother
black gingham H&M blouse: via Fashion Forestry
black trousers: Zara
vintage Nicole Miller flats: Wasteland
50s letterman sweater: thrifted and had it since high school

Both outfits are adorable, I always feel like I am wearing a picnic blanket when I wear gingham but I do not get picnic vibes from your gorgeous clothes!

Love both your black gingham outfits, I have a ’50s gingham dress too (I really like the red detailing on the hem of yours). Am envious of that ’50s letterman sweater, I’ve been searching for one for ages… sadly the ones I find are always super itchy or big.

Gorgeous both of them. I feel a hankering for black gingham now. x
