Plaid is a fun trend that can prove to be incredibly fashionable when styled the right way! As we go into the summer season, here are some of my top styling suggestions when it comes to all things plaid.
So, what plaid items do you NEED in your wardrobe?
There is no better way for this list of plaid must-haves off than a simple plaid mini skirt. One of the hottest trends right now is a classic tennis skirt. Buy one of these in a plaid print, and you are automatically extremely on trend! These skirts are paired perfectly with a simple, solid colored tee or tank.

I bought myself a pair of plaid Vans last month and it may be one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I realize that I often wear boring, solid colored tops with jeans or high waisted shorts, so I like to be able to spice up my outfit with a fun accessory. This is exactly where my plaid Vans come into play! Whether you are someone who prefers simple slip-on or a pair of platform, lace-up Vans, get them in a plaid pattern, and you will be mastering the plaid trend effortlessly!

When I think plaid, I think Clueless. When I think Clueless, I think matching yellow plaid two-piece set. If Cher can rock this look in the movie, why can’t you? There are so many fun variations of this classic two-piece plaid outfit available, meaning you do not necessarily have to rock a matching plaid blazer and mini skirt to be on trend. With this being said, just choose a set that is most reflective of your own personal style, and get ready to turn heads while making a major fashion statement!

Midi dresses are super on trend at the moment, and are one of my favorite clothing items to have on hand when I’m trying to look put together, but do not want to have to think about different components of an outfit. This summer, all you need is a plaid midi dress to rock the plaid trend! You can pair it with a white tee underneath to add an extra style component, or simply throw it on with a pair of chunky sneakers! With something as simple as a midi dress, you cannot go wrong in terms of styling!

Plaid pants are an absolute MUST in your wardrobe if you do not already have a pair. These are available nearly everywhere, making it incredibly easy to find the perfect pair of plaid pants for you. Whether you dress them down with a pair of sneakers for a shopping day or dress them up with a nice blouse and necklace for work, the opportunities are endless! If you are looking for a staple clothing item that embraces the plaid trend, plaid pants are the perfect option!

Having a plaid accessory is a fun way to embrace the trend without having to commit to it fully. While it is totally an option to go all out and carry a plaid tote while wearing an all-plaid outfit, just carrying the tote is plenty to prove that you are on trend! Imagine yourself in an all black sundress, while wearing a plaid tote on your shoulder. Obviously, the tote is going to be making a fun statement! For an affordable, commitment-free way to rock plaid this season, a plaid tote bag is an amazing choice!
