MANILA, Philippines - Checks are cool this season with top designers DKNY, Marc by Marc Jacobs, and Nanette Lepore showcasing this classic during Fashion Week. And with Twilight cast members Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner checking it out during various sightings, this pattern is gaining pop status with the young and fashionable.
Surplus checks it out with tops and tees in various expressions — from windowpane checks to preppy plaids in bright colors and modern cuts. Girls can have fashion fun in checkered long-sleeved and button-down tops, as well as Bermuda and walking shorts. It’s a checkered life, meanwhile, for guys in smart shirts and walking and cargo shorts.
Graphic tees and khaki shorts go well with plaid pieces, while checkered accessories — trendy hobo bags, waterproof backpacks, and colorful caps complete the look.
And while shopping for this fun look at Surplus, SM Advantage, SM Prestige, and BDO Rewards Card members have a chance to buy a trendy tote bag for only P99 with every P500 single or accumulated purchase until Aug. 15.
The checkered collection is available at Surplus Stores at most SM Supermalls.
