In case you missed it, spring is officially in full swing. OK, OK. So maybe there's still the occasional cold or rainy day here and there. But as far as our closets are concerned, we're going for it. And our absolute favorite timeless spring trend is gingham. Gingham is the unofficial print of the season — it's preppy and versatile, and it matches well with other colors or prints. It can be Sunday-morning casual or June-wedding dressy depending on the piece.

The plaid-adjacent print also packs a nostalgic punch. It conjures up visions of picnics in the park and juicy watermelon slices, the tablecloths at your favorite brunch spot, and the oh-so-soft summer dress your mother used to wear when you were a kid.

But even though gingham is a tried-and-true classic, it gets an updated, trendy makeover every year. Keep scrolling to check out the chicest gingham pieces available to shop right now.
