These will certainly brighten up anyone’s day! Combining both the checked and floral prints in one (10 points for bravery) it shouldn’t technically work, but it absolutely does.

Navy ruffle pocket check tunic
image

There is nothing more appealing to us than a dress you can just throw on, quite literally, and then rush to work late (natch) still looking half decent. Which is why we’ve picked this checked tunic. It’s modest but trendy and can take you from your desk to the bar in a jiffy.

Wear with: If you’re heading out, try team this with some bright red heels! If you’re at work, cute plain pumps will work wonders.
