ALL IN THE DETAILS: Mad For Plaid

Northeastern Ohio weather can be so unpredictable with temperatures ranging from 75 degrees to 48 degrees in the span of one week. In this awkward transition between summer and fall seasons, it can be challenging to pick out an outfit that will keep you warm for the walk to morning class, but cool enough on the walk back in the afternoon. This Fashionista showed how she accessorized her casual ensemble with the help of a blanket scarf!

This Fashionista was rocking a minimalistic fall ensemble consisting of a striped T-shirt, dark washed denim jeans with a RAD, ripped light wash denim jacket and a plaid scarf! The color of the scarf mimics the color of changing leaves such as deep reds and the vibrant yellows. She mixes patterns effortlessly by a picking a neutral color such as the black seen in the striped T-shirt and black stripes in the scarf and using red as the pop of color. The trick to accessorizing in the fall is layering, which is why scarves are the perfect accent especially in the early days of fall.

How To: To imitate this Fashionista’s accessory is easy. All you need is a scarf, some boots, a basic tee and a distressed denim jacket. On a chillier day, you may want to opt for a leather jacket, which will not only keep you warm, but also to offer an edgier element. Also, there are a variety of ways to drape a scarf so be sure to experiment in order to create an effortless look.
