I definitely didn’t need any more gingham in my wardrobe but I simply couldn’t resist this pretty pair of checkered pumps

A montage of gingham shoe images .

As soon as the sun starts to make a proper appearance, I will reach inside my wardrobe and grab something covered in gingham. For me, the vintage-style checks are always the perfect print for a sunny day and I have many dresses, shirts and bags covered in the timeless squares.

In fact, I own so many gingham pieces that I had actually made a pact with myself not to buy any more this year, as I really didn’t need anything new. I was doing well with my self-imposed ban until I saw this beautiful pair of red and white Mary-Jane pumps by River Island. The preppy gingham flats complete with wide cross-strap and faux buckle were just too pretty to resist, so I ordered a pair immediately and in all honesty, I have zero regrets. I love them.
