Here are some ways to rock the trend:

1. As a camisole: The thing about plaid is since it’s a less is more. On a monochrome outfit you can always gear up your look by adding plaid to it.

2. Shoes: For a monochrome outfit, skip plain shoes, try plaid instead. Plaid is the easiest way to liven up your outfit.

3. As a blazer: Plaid looks incredible as a blazer, it frames your outfit in a modern and stylish manner. A plaid blazer in any colour will always go with a white dress shirt and black jeans.

4. As office-wear: The plaid mini can look like a stripper porn star outfit if it’s not styled well. Try a plaid pencil skirt for the office.

5. As nail polish: Over weekend while getting a manicure, try something different, try a plaid manicure, its different and very fun.

6. Sheer clothing: if you are feeling very bold, try wearing a plaid bra over a sheer top and then a blazer, so it doesn’t end up looking trashy.

7. As a dress : In wearing plaid as a dress, also be minimal, match the dress with a neutral black or the most evident colour on the plaid dress.

8. Plaid on plaid: Who says you can’t wear print on print? You so can, you can match your plaid with another plaid, ONLY if they have similar colors.

9. Plaid on other patterns: You can match your plaid blouse with a black and white polka dotted scarf or a polka dotted skirt and a thin plaid belt. To ace the mixing of prints, ensure your shoes and bag match colours of the print.

10. Jewelry: As less is more for plaid, minimal jewelry is the best bet. You can also match your jewelry to your plaid attire to minimize the variety of colors.
