Plaid has long been a staple for Fall. A classic print that is versatile due to its variations in textile, colors and presentation, wearing plaid is a right of passage once the bitter chill of fall kicks in. Whether you smell like Teen Spirit because you love the 90s grunge look, or want to channel your inner royal, styling plaid is easy... as long as you know what you're looking for.
Tartans are bold and regal, but a classic check offers the ability to play up its typical two-tone features with accessories. No wardrobe is complete, in my opinion, without a red lumberjack button up shirt or jacket. Wear it with jeans, a leather mini and a pair of caged heels and you can be a fashionista at the office and happy hour. What's better - dark plaids lend themselves to being worn with dark makeup like burgundy, red and wines, or a basic lip nude is the perfect polished touch. My favorite way to rock plaid is with a deep lip and statement jewelry. The turtleneck and skirt combo has a punk-rock feel, but it still very feminine... best of both worlds if you ask me.
Plaids can also be played down with loafers, Converse and a simple blazer. You don't have to go all-out punk, if you want to experiment with edgy style - plaid is the way to go!
