It all checks out — Louis Vuitton's mod, checkered pattern is everywhere for Spring and Summer. Kristen Stewart, Jessica Alba, and Miranda Kerr are just a few of the stars who have slipped into the designer's checker-print pieces for the red carpet. Whether it's a full checked dress or a printed shoe or bag, each is making a compelling case to get in on the trend. Just watch today's Fashion Flash for all the details.

I adore balamoda's high-contrast photo shoot. Check out the juxtaposition between her checkered tunic and serene scene — don't you love the woodsy backdrop? She took a risk pairing her printed top with gold leggings and matching oxfords, but it paid off. A stylist in the making? I think so . . .

Come back and tell us what you have on!

Congrats to balamoda!

Like Vegemite, these Ksubi High-Waisted Checkerboard Skinny Jeans ($325), might take an acquired taste.

Like Vegemite, these Ksubi High-Waisted Checkerboard Skinny Jeans ($325), might take an acquired taste.

Coveted Australian line, Ksubi, has joined forces with style icon Jeremy Scott in creating the highly anticipated Jeremy Loves Ksubi collection. The checkerboard print is a definite reflection of Jeremy's eccentric and far-out sense of style. These checkerboard jeans are no exception — do you think checkers should stay on the board and not our legs?
