There’s something about plaids, gingham and checkered-patterns that make me think of two words: “summer” and “picnic.” These two pieces from Forever 21 do just that. Don’t they make you want to spread out a big blanket on lush green glass, un-cork a bottle of wine and slice a watermelon?! It’s a nice bonus that these patterns happen to be making a splash this season, for both men and women.

This blue and black Gingham Flare Skirt couldn’t be cuter and is priced at just $17.80. I love the tiered ruffled front of the Kylie Plaid Shirt, selling for a mere $15.80! (Going into fall, I would pair this plaid shirt with a great pair of cowboy boots!)

Happy Summer!
