I don’t own too many plaid pieces but the few I do, I love! And yes you can make plaid look professional! Here is my plaid pencil skirt paired with a solid turquoise turtleneck. The smooth silhouette of the outfit looks very clean.
Top: Forever 21 Turqouse blouse- size small (similar HERE)
Skirt: Forever 21 Plaid belted skirt- size XS (similar HERE)
Shoes: BCBG peep toe pumps– size 5
You want to be careful when wearing plaid in the workplace. Because it’s a busy pattern, you want to pair it with a solid top. And pick plaid pieces that are not overwhelming- especially on a petite frame. The colors of this skirt are very toned down, which I like.
Notice how smooth the outfit is when the top is tucked in. My biggest pet peeve are bulges! The skirt silhouette is very fitted and so is the top- creating a really smooth look.
Shop this look with other plaid skirts:
1. Express high waisted plaid skirt– super cute and comes in 00 and 0
2. Kate Spade mini plaid skirt– super cute and love the colors
3. Max Studio plaid skirt– comes in XS
That’s it from me for now! Hope everyone has a great rest of the week!
I like this classic look for work. It seems like you've been having lots of luck at F21 lately!
I don't have anything in plaid (except a scarf) because I always thought it would be too busy… but I like the pattern of your skirt!
