ALL IN THE DETAILS: Plaid for President

I have never met a plaid I didn’t like. From button-downs to scarves, plaid is a classic print that will never go out of style and will never be excluded from the wardrobe. Whether your style is more grunge or totally preppy, plaid is a transformative print that works for anyone and goes perfectly with almost anything in your closet.

The majority of my favorite plaid pieces are winter and fall wear; my cozy scarves and flannels remain untouched in the back of my closet throughout the summer, waiting for their time to shine once the temperatures dip and pumpkin spice lattes return to the menu at Starbucks. This Fashionista incorporated plaid into her look in a way that is completely summer-approved. Her navy, plaid top is lightweight enough that it won’t leave you sweating during the dog days of summer, and the neutral color means its pairing possibilities are practically endless. While she opted to wear jeans cuffed at the bottom, you could just as easily pair this top with shorts or a trendy midi skirt. Any solid bottom pairs perfectly with this top, allowing its pattern to be the star of the show. Delicate gold necklaces add the perfect amount of polish to the look, and her tan leather wedges are great for either  a day at work or school or a night out on the town.

How To: Recreate this classic look for yourself by grabbing a plaid T-shirt or blouse and pairing it with some delicate accessories and wearable wedges! It’s the perfect way to satisfy your plaid withdrawal until it’s time to pull out your favorite pieces for fall.
