THE WAY YOU WEAR IT...CHECKS
Elle street style, Checks Jo, 23
No one pulls off the mis-matched look like London girls and this style is the envy of fashionistas the world over. Borrowed from the boyfriend shirts and knits look laid back and cool - (suprisingly sexy compared to a high maintenance, tried-too-hard style). The clashing orange lips are what caught our attention, an important detail when rocking the boy/girl dynamic.

Checks are big news for A/W 08 as we saw on the catwalks at New York Fashion Week, but if you can't wait until next season to rock this punk inspired trend then make like the celebrities and wear it now. We went out on the street to bring you some style inspiration and show you how the fashion mavens about town are wearing checks.
