Gingham Love for the Whole Family

My love for gingham has been going strong since I was a little girl.  One of the first comforter sets I had was pink and white gingham and it was one of my favorite bedding sets ever.  I’ve had various gingham tops and accessories throughout the years, and in junior high my best friend and I were obsessed with Gingham perfume.  Do y’all remember that?  I think it was made by Bath & Body Works in the early 90s? 

Well, gingham is going to be all the rage this summer, AND I AM HERE FOR IT!  It’s technically never gone out of style in my book anyway.  To me, gingham is classic and has always/will always be a staple in my closet… probably because I’m from the south.  <3 

I’m so excited for all of the extra hype this year because that just means that there are lots of new, fun gingham pieces available to shop!  J Crew, for one, is TEARING IT UP and they are having a MAJOR sale right now.  Most items are already marked down + you can get an additional 50% off of many of them on top of the sale prices.  Here are some of my favorite finds for the season, a lot of which are from J Crew!

Women

I have been eyeing this dress for weeks.  It is absolute perfection and it's on suuuuper sale today... the dress is currently 28% off and you can get an additional 50% off of the sale price with the code SALEUPGRADE.

I received a couple of Amazon gift cards for my birthday and I ordered this dress below... kind of reminds me of Dorothy's dress in The Wizard of Oz!  And I just so happen to have my very own Toto.  ;o)

This wrap dress is perfect for a day in the office, an evening out with your hubs, or a beach trip… so versatile!

I’m loving how cheery this dress is from Old Navy!  Pure sunshine!

Another Old Navy pick… love this blue and white!  So fresh and clean!

This top from Amazon is darling and only $14.99.

Another great Amazon find!  I would love this one for football season paired with a chunky red necklace!

So I had a pair of shorts almost identical to these when I was probably 12 or 13 and they are giving me all the feels and bringing back aaaallll the memories! 

This pencil skirt is perfection and it would be the perfect spring addition to any closet.

THIS COAT, Y’ALL!!!!  That is all.

I’m regretting not seeing this swim suit before I bought my other one… the back is gorgeous.

I love the simplicity of this swim suit… another great find!

This scarf is currently sitting at the top of my wish list for fall.  You may see this again on my Christmas wish list if I don’t purchase it before then.

Y’all know I love some fun shoes and I love everything about these… the block heel, the ankle strap, and the gingham… of course.  :o)

How fun are these studs?!  They come in lots of different colors and are so affordable at just $4.50 each.  They would make great gifts!

And finally, I have officially found my next Pop Socket!!!!  When my current one wears out, this one will be mine!

Men

There’s just something about a gingham button-down shirt on a guy that gives me all the heart eyes!  Perhaps that’s why B has a few like this one in his closet…

And when it comes to gingham button-downs for men, I love any color, but the pastel-y and bright colors like this shirt will always have my heart.

Bow ties are another Southern staple, and a gingham bow tie like this one?  Well, it doesn’t get much more Southern than that… well except for maybe a seersucker bow tie.  ;o)

And if you’re not a bow tie kind of guy (but why wouldn’t you be?!), you can get neck ties in gingham, too.  :o)

Girls

This dress might be the cutest little girl dress I’ve ever seen in my life!!!!  The gingham.  The ruffles.  The straps that tie.  I die. 

And I’m loving this purple and white gingham and the back of this dress!

Another cute find… this dress is perfect for a beach trip!

This dress is on its way to our house for Olivia as we speak!

Oh to have a tiny baby girl who could fit in this precious romper!  Carter’s was my #1 place to shop when the kids were really small and I can pretty much guarantee Olivia would own this if she was younger than 24 months and could fit into it.

And OMG these tiny shoes for baby!!  Can I please get these in my size??

Cutest little gingham bows on these flats for girls!

Boys

Jacob has owned his fair share of gingham as well.  As a matter of fact, he currently has a shirt almost identical to this one hanging in his closet right now.  I love pink gingham on guys!

I love the mixed colors on this shirt. 

The bright green gingham on this top gives me all the Easter feels.

Jacob had several gingham rompers similar to this one when he was small.  He better be glad they don’t make him in his size anymore because I’d still be trying to dress him in them.  Just kidding.  Well, kind of.  Hahahaha.

This shirt is en route to our house for Jacob as we speak!  It’ll be perfect for Easter and the BEACH!!!!

So tell me, are you a gingham fan?  Are you as excited for this summer trend as I am?!
