I've long been a fan of houndscheck/ houndstooth, and particullarly love this jacket for magnifiying the pattern to a great extreme.
Likewise, I appreciate Gwen Stefani's use of the check to establish a mod and 2 tone vibe for LAMB's spring/summer 08 collection, which is beggining to arrive in stores.

I've already got my eyes on these LAMB checkerboard heels at Shopbop.com.

Dontchya think Spicoli would approve?
