No matter your aesthetic, there’s room in your closet for a plaid skirt. Over the years, plaid has appeared in a wide range of aesthetics, from prep to punk and beyond. This year, plaid skirts are experiencing yet another renaissance.
Despite the notable versatility of plaid skirts, it can be easy to fall into a styling rut when it comes to this back-to-school staple.
Whether the vibe you’re going for is more understated elegance or moody intrigue, you can bet there’s a plaid skirt outfit to get you there. Whether you opt for a skirt that’s mini or maxi length, with or without pleats, in a vibrant shade or a neutral one, will depend on the mood and occasion.
When in doubt, this simple — a neck-warming — top looks cute every time. Plus, a basic turtleneck gives you ample room to play around with statement accessories, from bold belts to trending sunnies or hats.
