STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Plaid Is Rad

January 18th, 2016 at 2:00am

Whether it be a classic flannel shirt or perhaps even a plaid skirt inspired by Rachel Green, I think that it is safe to say that almost every wardrobe includes plaid. Plaid itself has been a trend for so many decades and it doesn’t seem to be going anywhere anytime soon! When I personally think of plaid, the ’90s come to mind because it is a staple to many grunge looks. The timeless pattern is one that encompasses a casual yet put together feel.

This Fashionista in particular chose to use plaid as a bold statement. The black and white monochromatic color scheme adds a level of sophistication to her ensemble. Her warm and cozy cardigan is perfect for those chilly and windy days! You can get a cardigan similar to hers here. She chose to keep the rest simple so that the main focus was the graphic plaid pattern. However other elements of her outfit do not go unnoticed, including her infinity scarf. I love how she chose to add another layer of not only interest, but texture. This is a perfect example of how to dress warm while still looking effortlessly-chic during cold winter months. To complete the ensemble this Fashionista chose to wear classic black leather combat boots. These boots provide a component of edginess, which complements the plaid trend perfectly!

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “I would have to say that neutrals are always a go-to look for me. I love them because you can even enhance your outfit simply with an unexpected, bold lip color!”
