STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Blanketed in Plaid

As the end of the semester approaches, it can be difficult to stay motivated while not only studying in the library, but also in getting dressed for class. It is so tempting to roll out of bed and head to campus in yesterday’s makeup and the same T-shirt you slept in last night. However, there is a way to stay comfortable and still look casually-chic. The key is to put together a bunch of cozy pieces that can take you from catching up with friends in a coffee shop downtown to napping on campus in between finals.

One of the hottest accessories of the season is guaranteed to keep you warm as the air gets colder. The plaid blanket scarf is the latest winter trend, and for good reason. It is a super soft and versatile piece that can make any basic outfit stand out. Plaid blanket scarves come in an array of colors that exemplify the holiday spirit and wearing one will have you counting down the days until winter break.

In this Fashionista’s outfit, her blanket scarf is the star of the show. She starts her outfit with a loose-fit oatmeal T-shirt and basic dark-wash skinny jeans. Her oversized blanket scarf is a forest green plaid design with pops of red and yellow that perfectly captures the colors of the season. She finishes the outfit with dark-brown lace-up booties. No other accessories are needed when wearing a blanket scarf!
