25 Stylish Ways to Wear Plaid

Fashion Jackson

Plaid has always been a longtime favorite pattern of ours and will continue to be a go-to wardrobe staple season after season. This pattern not only has a rich history, but also has a way of sneaking its way into every aspect of our lives, from home design to our outfit of the day. While the signature ‘plaid’ that comes to mind upon hearing the word (think: your dad’s favorite flannel) may be restricted by some to autumnal seasons, we’re here to tell you that plaid comes in many different forms that are well-deserving of a place in your wardrobe year-round. Windowpane, tartan, buffalo check, gingham, houndstooth and glen plaid…the list goes on, and we’re extending an open invitation to them all. Whether your personal style falls on the spectrum of casual fireside chats, sporty street style, or somewhere in between, it’d simply be a shame to limit these stylish uses of our favorite pattern to a 3-month calendar. We invite you to push the limits on your standard tartan cape + jeans ensemble and draw a little inspiration from our favorite plaid outfits à la Pinterest.
