Plaid is quite possibly the most prevalent print for the Fall/Winter season. It's warm, rich and timeless. Whether it's in a flannel shirt, wool coat or a festive silk dress for the holidays, plaid blends colors in a grid line pattern that everyone, gals and gents alike, can incorporate into what ever style suits them.
This jacket contrasts the oversized plaid print with a cropped design perfectly. The ivory base is bright and light against the boucle wool. The shorter sleeve length is a favorite of mine as I find it cumbersome being petite to have the sleeves cover my hand and get in the way of daily function. It's also impossible to avoid soiling when they're too long.
I paired this jacket with a burgundy sheath dress to compliment the hint of color in the plaid. The shorter hem line of the jacket highlights the waist creating a feminine shape. This look has somewhat of a retro vibe back to the 60's, which is nice and sophisticated for the office but paired with my grey jeans and black over the knee boots it's right on time for after hours.
I recently discovered the Emerson Rose line at Nordstrom and I must say it's divine! Quality, classic and just perfectly chic.
How ever you style it, wear plaid beautifully!
Dress Beautifully in Plaid
