Gingham!!!

I am a sucker for gingham or basically anything plaid.  I am well aware that gingham is not plaid ... but it feels all the same to me!!

Since I am currently working on my summer wardrobe I have been researching some new gingham duds.  I LOOOVE an oxford (or a woven if you have any retail training) and any color will do.  I currently own two gingham oxfords, black and royal blue and it is time to add more to my collection!  I luckily scored a navy blue gingham from Banana on clearance the other day.  I know ... navy and royal blue?  Of course!!!

I am thinking I will be picking up this one from JCrew ...  

Now if you know me well you know I do not like purple at all.  No ma'am ... not a fan!  However, this lavender seems to be pulling at me and I will be trying it out for size.  Think of the possibilities ... navy, white, black and possibly even yellow shorts.  Sounds pretty good to me!

I located this yellow camp yellow camp shirt on the Gap website but it is not listed in the shirts/blouses section.  And can we discuss the word "blouse"?  Does it creep anyone else out .. or just me?  Ugh ... I do not like that word at all.  Its like "slacks".  Creepy!!

Great ... that one will require some investigative reporting!

And, of course Ann Mashburn has the best and most beautiful selection, but I would expect nothing less.  She has navy, royal, purple, black, pink, grass green and a perfect orange.  Sigh ... but those will  surely bust my budget.  And then she has gingham d ring belts ... are you kidding me??  That whole store makes me happy!!!

Wish me luck ... I am off to finalize my summer wardrobe today and I will be sporting my black and white gingham which has a new addition ... a bright yellow monogram on the left chest!  I love its new look!!!

If you see me give me a squeeze!
