All That Plaid

All That Plaid

Wearing a plaid skirt can be a challenge. It's hard to get a cozy and cute look without the kinky schoolgirl vibe. My outfit (center), inspired by those on the right and left, uses varied textures and basic colors to negate the any notions of a school uniform.

I'm wearing:
  • Black cropped sweater from Cotton On
  • Gray plaid skirt from Target
  • Black tights from Target
  • Mottled gray socks from Target
  • Gray booties by White Mountains

10/ 27


Nothing I love more than mixing textures. I took advantage of H&M's end of season sale, buy buying last season's styles in this season's colors. You can incorporate out of season pieces by layering.

I'm wearing:
  • Black romper from H&M
  • Purple cardigan from Target
  • Fishnets from Mandee
  • Floral Doc Martens

The exciting part about this outfit (left) is the mix of textures. Inspired by an outfit I spotted on campus (right), I loved the contrast between the denim and the florals.

I'm wearing:
  • Floral skirt from Forever 21
  • Black cropped sweater from Cotton On
  • Black tights from Target
  • Grey socks from Target
  • Brown combat boots from Mandee
  • Hard Rock Cafe New York denim jacket

  • Black leggings from UniQlo
  • Brown Carrini boots

T-shirt dresses add a magical level of androgyny to your wardrobe. In this ensemble, I've dressed up a dingy plaid flannel with a T-shirt dress and accessorized with knee-high socks.

I'm wearing:
  • Black T-shirt dress from Target
  • Men's blue plaid flannel from my boyfriend
  • Black knee-high socks from Target
  • Floral Doc Martens

Stay sporty chic this fall by pairing neutral colored sweaters with khakis.

I'm wearing:
  • Maroon sweater I picked up at a local thrift store
  • Skinny khakis from H&M
  • Mottled socks from Target
  • White high-top Converse

My outfit (right) was inspired by a woman I saw on the street (left). Pairing boyfriend jeans with a cropped blouse adds a polished look to a comfortable outfit. The contrasting top and jeans allows for a variety of footwear. You can play up the blouse by adding flats or dress it down with a pair of combat boots.

I'm wearing:
  • Blue star-printed button-up from Mandee
  • Boyfriend jeans from H&M
  • Beige combat boots from Mandee
