Men's fashion pick: the checked shirt

Checked shirts are very thin water to tread in the style stakes. 

One toe out of line and you could end up looking like a bad extra out of Only Fools and Horses. 

So, we've picked out our favourite on the Hight Street at the moment. 

Men's Fred Perry Double faced madras shirt, Dark Blue

This Fred Perry shirt will ensure you're on the fashion 'hit' lists.

Wear it with a pair of dark denim skinny jeans and a pair of Vans for the day. Then wear a tan belt and tan shoes for a look that's date-worthy or a night on the town with the lads. 

Available from House of Fraser, £80.
