the first heat wave is upon us and i'm immediately scrambling to find something easy and breezy to make it through the day without melting like the wicked witch. gingham was heavily featured on the spring/summer 2017 runways so it wouldn't be a bad idea to snap up a piece or two of this perennial summer favorite. just be sure to keep the look fresh and modern and less preppy. the gingham options at asos right now are terrific and best of all they are all under $50.
