Checkmate: Finishing Off Your Look with Plaid Accessories

Clothing with vibrant colors or bold patterns make your outfit interesting, but it’s the accessories you choose that will make or break the look. To ensure you always make a stylish statement, slip on a few plaid accessories.

While a bold necklace or bright handbag adds a striking touch to your outfits, plaid accessories bring a sophisticated, yet playful element to your ensemble. Here are a few ways to style these checkered pieces.

Plaid Scarf

Looking to spruce up a simple jeans and T-shirt combination? Slide on a plaid scarf over your shirt. If you’re wearing a white tee, opt for one that will pop against it in a pink or red shade. For darker shades, go lighter and stand out with a beige scarf.

Plaid Handbag

If you’re a fan of all things black and white or simply prefer minimalist looks, you can use accessories as an opportunity to add bold hues or fun patterns to your neutral look. The perfect piece that can give you the best of both worlds is a plaid handbag. Opt for a plaid tote for a touch of sophistication as you head to work or go for a sleek clutch for a more formal occasion.

Plaid Tie

Corporate workplaces don’t allow a lot of room for clothing in different colors and patterns, but there is one loophole—a tie. Take advantage of this small freedom of expression and pair a plaid tie with your dark suits. While they have an eye-grabbing print, they have a polished appearance that still falls into the realm of professional.

Plaid Hat

We’ve all had those days where we didn’t want to get out of bed and just threw on the first thing we saw. Whether you drag yourself out of the house in sweats and a crew neck or leggings and an oversized sweater, keep your look casual with a plaid hat. While your outfit may be relaxed, your hat still serves as a standout piece in your look.

It’s time you step your accessories game up from just a simple bag or metallic jewelry. Get your hands on plaid accessories and watch as your outfits become more daring and stylish.
