Plaid Pairings

{Plaid Shirt: Mossimo from Target || Pencil Skirt: H&M}

For the longest time, I’ve wanted to pair this plaid Mossimo shirt (last seen here and here) with a pencil skirt. The warm November Saturday this past weekend, coupled with an evening of fine dining during Restaurant Week proved to be the perfect opportunity (so please forgive the impromptu photo shoot setting and not-so-great lighting). I’m still in shock that I was able to pull the outfit off without tights this late in the season, but the mild temps were accommodating. This weather means more time for flats and cardigans, and less time spent deciding how many layers I need to leave the house.

Plaid is a favorite fall staple of mine and I love how this outfit was instantly elevated with a pencil skirt, heels, and some gold accessories. I wanted to keep the look fairly monochromatic, but you could easily add a cheerful plaid pattern for some color.

How do you pair your plaid?

    • Thanks, Krisztina! I normally wear mine with skinnies and riding boots, but I thought this was a nice way to embrace the warm weather. I’m glad you enjoyed the post and thanks for visiting Living in Steil!

  5. I love this pairing, Vanessa! The monochromatic feel is very chic and perfect for a night out for restaurant week! The weather has been amazing hasn’t it?! Well, except for today, it’s a bit gloomy and chilly out. Let’s continue to enjoy it as much as possible because New York winter can definitely be brutal!

    Have an amazing day, beautiful!

    • I’m loving this mild fall weather, Jalisa! If it could stay like this until spring I would be a happy girl. I’m glad you liked this look. It was fun to pair my plaid shirt with something other than skinny jeans. Hope you’re having a great week!
