Plaid Perfection
Kelli Conway • 02/20/2018
Sure, polka dots may be poised to be the MVP (that's Most Valuable Print) once warmer temperatures hit. But until we can bare our stems without the threat of frostbite, we'll have another equally timeless pattern on our minds. Classic plaid is here to stay for a while. It's nearly impossible to scroll through Instagram and not come across a million variations of the timeless pattern. So after months of style envy, we decided to take a deep dive into the iconic plaid life. We've narrowed down exactly how to wear it like the most fashionable women—and we're here to show you which pieces your closet will be begging for (if you haven't already indulged in this trend, of course).
The plaid blazer took over last fall as the season’s must-have piece, catapulting it into 'it-girl' status seemingly overnight. Layer an oversized checked blazer with a graphic tee and vintage jeans to nail the menswear-inspired trend. Another one of our favorites is plaid pants—pair your fancy trousers with white patent booties or dress down your outfit with clean sneakers and a denim jacket. Finally, a checkered midi skirt or longline coat can add an air of sophistication to any look.
