What will you pair with plaid?

What will you pair with plaid?

It's officially Fall which means it's officially time to break out the next's seasons wardrobe.

This year, instead of sporting another hand-me-down sweater to keep warm, why not try the season's trendiest pattern.

Karmaloop is Mad For Plaid, offering button downs to pants and everything in between for men and women.

Tina Burgos, Director of Women's Buying at Karmaloop, shares her tips on how best to wear plaid this season:

1. It's okay to mix plaid with other patterns.  However, make sure they compliment each other.  If you are wearing a bold plaid shirt, balance it with a subtle floral printed denim or thin striped legging. 

If you are daring enough to mix plaids, do it so the colors compliment each other. Neutral tones usually work best when first starting out. 

2.   When choosing a plaid bottom make sure you choose colors and styles that are flattering to your figure.  The wrong choice in plaid can accentuate the wrong areas of your body.

3.   If you are not comfortable with wearing plaid attire, choose an accessory!  Incorporating a plaid bag or shoe is a great way to wear this trend without being over the top.

4. Finally, if you have a simple jeans and tee, a piece of  plaid outerwear is a great way to spice up your outfit.
