Fall Trends: All Things Plaid… Katie’s Picks
These Veronica Beard pants are a great way to add some fall plaid into your work wardrobe! You can pair them with a simple black sweater or black blazer for a chic work look to take you through the season.
A plaid skirt is another fun way to add some of fall’s biggest print into your wardrobe. This fun skirt from Mango is subtle – I love the neutral tones. Pair this skirt with an oversized ivory sweater and some great fall boots, and you are ready to go!
I styled the plaid skirt above for you guys. Like I mentioned before, I love the idea of this great skirt paired with a chunky sweater of some kind. The one I’ve paired it with has some fun button detailing, and I love the collar! Throw on a great boot and some chunky good earrings, and you are fall chic and ready to go!

A Few Of Katey’s Plaid Faves
As you guys know, I love a classic look. And this piece gives off classic fall Ralph Lauren vibes to me, so naturally it caught my eye right away. I love this poncho as a statement piece when you need to be outside most of the day… And styled just how the model has it here is on point!
A dickey blazer is incredibly versatile for fall and winter. In this particular one, the sweater insert is removable via zipper. This piece is a really good looking dupe of a designer brand…. You can wear this blazer with the sweater insert, or style the blazer on it’s own with a tank, tee, blouse, white button-up shirt, or crewneck sweater of your choosing.
Plaid Blazer With Removable Sweater Dickey
Let’s style the plaid dickey blazer above. For this look, I’m styling it with the sweater insert. Tuck the insert into the jeans. That said, you just as easily put a white blouse or tee under the blazer instead!

A Few More Fun Plaid Pieces Chosen Via Dana
This plaid top looks great off the shoulder and would pair well with leather pants or a leather pencil skirt. Keep the bottom half of your look edgier to offset the preppy pattern.
This skirt is a fun twist on the plaid trend. The pop of pink adds a funky element to what would be considered a very classic style.
Checked Pleated Skirt {Extended Sizing}
The checked pleated skirt above would of course be gorgeous paired with a solid top. But would I would also say is… Don’t be afraid to mix patterns! This pink and tan striped sweater is the perfect compliment to the skirt – and it adds a fund modern element to the look. The black flat boot brings a bit of edge to tie it all together.
