INSPIRATION AND ADVICE
DO CHECKS FOR WORK LIKE THIS
By Maybelle Morgan, 26 November 2017
Whether tartan, houndstooth or windowpane, checks (heritage in particular) are making serious waves this season. Looking for a place to start? Your tailored 9-5 thing is the perfect blank canvas to tick all the boxes, so look to your new suiting muse, London-based stylist Julia Sarr-Jamois, with this dreamy clashing get-up…

The main thing to take away from this sweet-as oversized look is that different checks should be friends, not enemies. Julia pairs a boxy 80s-style double-breasted jacket in subtle grid lines with cropped mensy trousers in a harsher windowpane check.
Layered over a rose-pink shirt to pretty up the vibe, retro patent boots and a sassy grab-handle clutch add working-girl sass. Chunky black aviators seal the deal – bossing it.
