From distinct, large patterns to smaller squares, the check trend is a great style for the colder months. We show you how to incorporate them in an otherwise simple and minimal outfit while looking smart, sophisticated and right on trend. Check it out!

This pretty wool scarf from Vila will immediately add a touch of style to your outfit. The large check pattern will complement your neutral jacket and keep you warm while looking chic all winter long.
Vila, wool scarf, £22
Swedish brand Ulterior Motive creates the details that set you apart, and this Gingham Blues v2 bow tie in blue, black and white will do just that. The word gingham has a resounding feel of Britishness, but it actually originates from the Malay word ‘genggang’, meaning striped.
Ulterior Motive, ‘Gingham Blues v2’ bow tie, £35.77

The Amie jacket from Filippa K ticks all the boxes, and is the perfect new addition to your wardrobe this season. With a fit inspired by a kimono-style robe, it works just as well over trousers as a top, or on its own as a dress. Its dropped shoulder and wide, slitted sleeves provide a relaxed and slightly oversized fit. Available in deep blue and dark khaki.
Filippa K, ‘Amie’ jacket, £365
With its high neck, this classic wool coat from Jack & Jones has an interesting, unique look. It is available in a range of colours, but this blue tone will help you stand out and look cool in the coming winter months.
Jack & Jones, high neck wool coat, £140

The Näver Collection from Eduards Accessories’ by Cecilia Eduards is inspired by Swedish nature and traditional Nordic craft and building techniques. It is her contemporary interpretation of the traditional birch bark braiding method used for centuries in Scandinavia. We love the cross-body shoulder bag, which will complement your outfits perfectly this year.
