How to wear plaids

Fall is officially here, It’s hard to admit but I am really loving it. The spectacular display of colour and the way the leaves cover the ground, make me accept the fact that the summer has gone. Wearing plaids is the best way to embrace the fall in a stylish way. Plaid is all over this season. This is actually a trend that never goes out of style, but this season, in addition to the classic plaid shirts, you can find the tartan print in Ponchos, jackets, dresses and even in bags and shoes.

I’ll never get tired of this pattern (trust me I get tired of things very quickly) because It gives a sophisticated twist to any fall look, especially when pairing it with dark colours. like grey and black.  I can defiantly say that this traditional print is anything but old fashion. Whatever you looking for a comfy and oversized plaid shirt, that nailed the grungy ‘90s look or you want to rock it with a fashionable, edgy piece like the tartan trousers, and even if you are aiming for a classier option, like an elegant checks coat with pairs of heels, plaid has them all, just choose your favourite piece…

Here are some tips of how to wear plaid in a creative way:
