It’s getting difficult to find the time and the space to take outfit pictures and when I’m out I always forget to ask someone to snap a picture for me! One time when I was visiting the Blush Pretty Toronto Studio I asked Stephanie to take my picture – we probably should have considered the spotlight behind me and the reflection in the mirror LOL! But oh well!
Skirt: Ann Taylor Factory Lace Crochet Skirt 0P
Belt: H&M XS
Shoe: Avon size 7 (Old)
This gingham shirt is super soft and really comfortable and I like the smaller gignham pattern on me as opposed to the larger pattern and I was more drawn to the brighter sunnier colour of this orange (can’t find online!) as opposed to the classic colours like black and navy. Since I’m petite I personally think smaller patterns look better on me. I also like the look of this casual gingham print paired with the “fanicer” lace crochet skirt! Makes me feel not too dressy and not too casual 
What do you think of this combination, does it work for you or would you try something different?

You are preaching to the converted here – I bought a black & white gingham shirt last year and it is a wardrobe essential!
Either that or everything was sold out!

aren’t you so cute?! I love that skirt!
Thanks Cee! I know, I know, I’ve fallen out of the habit of snapping outfit photos!
Thank you Jessy! I just took inspiration from the other ladies
Welcome to the gingham club! I like how we all chose a different color to fit our wardrobe (or in my case, it’s colorS plural, lol). I think the outfit works because the gingham squares are small. More outfit posts please!
I like how you paired it with lace! An unexpected combo.
Thank you Tracy! It’s one of my favorite skirts, I want to try dressing it down like this more so I can wear it out more often!
Really? They had so many (though many different colour combos) at mine. I wonder if there is a difference between where the ON’s are located?
LinkWithin issues resolved – I deleted LOL! Thanks for pointing it out!
Thanks Ash!
Me too! It’s more difficult than I thought – I just don’t have the eye for mixing!
Thank you Michelle, I appreciate it!
Thank you Annie!
Thank you Tara! For me this is very out of the box
I love it! Its so cute with the lace skirt!
That skirt is still one of my fav purchases last year. I can’t wait to wear it again. You look great, Elaine! Love the pattern mixing. Hope you enjoy the rest of your week.
I love it!! I havent seen this shirt in my ON here!
I love this on you! So cute! BTW…super weird but, your “You might also like” links are pointing to Cee’s blog! I’m guessing that’s a LinkWithin issue. =P
Love the shirt! Great outfit.
Love the comb. I’m trying to get the hang of balancing casual with dressy items.
Cute!
I love this outfit on you Elaine!
I think it is adorable, I love the pattern and the texture!
