Pretty Plaid

  One of my favorite trends for fall has always been plaid. This print has been around forever in many shapes and forms. Take a look at some celebrities who have tried this trend over the years...

    One reason that I love plaid so much is that it's so versatile! There are so many different ways to wear it.

    Most people associate plaid with flannels for a casual or country kind of look. They are great for country concerts, but also just to throw on when hanging out. Borrow an older brother or boyfriend's oversized flannel for an extra comfy yet fashionable look!

    As I said before, plaid can be worn in many different ways though. A lot of people have made plaid look edgy. Add a leather jacket or some boots for the perfect combination of chic and punk.

    Plaid can also be made to look pretty and polished. Preppy plaid is becoming increasingly popular. For this look, the right accessories are key.

    Two styling tips I have for wearing plaid this fall are to layer and to wear your plaid top unbuttoned with a different shirt underneath!

    I love how BP's Back-to-School looks show that plaid doesn't always have to be in the form of a flannel. Their new shirts are extremely light and comfortable! Check them out here:

Will plaid be included in your back to school looks? 

Have a great weekend!

XOXO,
