CHECKS ON TREND
People have been going crazy for this blazer since @lornaluxe was seen wearing it on Instagram. I'm afraid I do love it just as much as everyone else and set off to find it online. Mission successful, and I'll be completing my purchase once payday arrives, see below for direct links to it. After all the attention this one has got I thought I'd have a little look online to see what else is available on the high street and went on the hunt for some more style inspo for checks this Autumn.
Structured Blazer Stradivarius £29.99
I haven't ordered from this website before so to tell the truth I'm a little unsure of what size to order. I want it to have a slightly oversized fit so I think I will go with a Medium to start with. The price on this one is so good, especially considering it has extra details it could have easily gone without; the buttons on the sleeves, trim on the pockets.
The fabric pattern is a Glen Plaid, otherwise known as 'Prince of Wales Check'. It is traditionally a very masculine, monochrome print but every Autumn/Winter we see it make its mark in women's fashion. By adding in some colour and styling it with laid back denims and band tees it easily becomes a chic street style look.
Check Blazer ASOS £50.00
Check Culottes ASOS £38.00
Large Check Belted Jacket River Island @ ASOS £28.00 (was £70.00)
Check Suit Blazer Mango £69.99
As winter is creeping up on us you might be more tempted to go for a thicker more sturdy coat style that will see you through the whole season. These could still be styled up with laid back denim and long sleeve tees and will most definitely come back in to fashion year after year.
Check Coat Zara £89.99
Check Slouch Coat Topshop £110.00
Grey Check Midi Coat New Look £34.99
Check Coat Oasis @ ASOS £60.00 (was £120.00)
Prince of Wales Coat Mango £119.99
If you want to mix things up a little and not just stick to outerwear then check these out (pardon the pun). I've been wearing my trousers with this seasons must have boot the chunky bovver boot and styling my top with a leather mini and smart blazer, see below...

For perfect transitional dressing don't miss out on checks this season. Mix up your look with smart white shirts, go casual with sports luxe tracksuit bottoms. And if you really want to go all out go for the co-ords and mix and match them with other pieces in your wardrobe.
