In the midst of emerging trends there are classics that you can't do without. These are the building blocks for a timeless wardrobe. This oversized checkerboard plaid sweater brings plenty of pretty, perfect for embracing a new season of cool. In extra fine marino wool it is in fact extra soft!
The statement plaid in shades of grey is a squarely suited piece for transitioning into fall with it's mock neck and elbow sleeve design.
I mixed this classic with the trending culotte style of trousers. The trick to wearing culottes, is for the hem to hit a few inches below the knee and a few inches above the ankle. And for us petite gals, take them to a tailor if needed. It's the least expensive alteration you can get. Also try a nude heel. It's leg lengthening! (don't ask me how many pairs of nude shoes I own - a gal's gotta wear what a gal's gotta wear)
P.S. This block plaid sweater comes in a coordinating skirt and coat.
