Checkerboard – pink and white

As the name suggests, checkerboard refers to a black-and-white check pattern like the one on a checkerboard or the finishing line flag of a race. It consists of evenly sized squares in two different colors placed in alternating positions. But when it comes to Fashion rules can always be broken. Checkered patters can come in all kinds of color combinations – but this one especially I could not resit  – my favourite pink with white. The dress I found at Zara and it immediately became my favourite. Here I matched it with a green Zara bag and summer shoes, in a fashionway.

Checkerboard print

Since the start of the Corona pandemic in 2020 we have seen so many aspects of our lives change – our day to day life, our ability to see friends and family and how we work. And of course, the lockdowns have changed fashion from how we see it to how we buy it. Me for instance – I started favouring the more comfortable every day clothes and buying many things online thus missing the enjoyment of the the real shopping activity. Somehow life started looking like a black & white photo – lacking variety… Or like chess, where we have to do only certain moves. In that line of thought, the checkerboard print, which is very trendy and almost everywhere now, fits perfectly to that fashion and I like it. I found these checkerboard wide leg relaxed fit jeans and a fluffy Jacket by MONKI and matched them with cream Bershka boots and a small Pimki bag, in a fashionway.
