White and black shirts look great with almost any color of plaid, and white tan and cream shirts go well with fall colors, like red and orange. Keep your accessories minimal by grabbing a small handbag and layering a few necklaces on top.
If a button-down is too stiff for you, go with a silk blouse instead. High heels would look lovely with this outfit, and the same goes for oxfords or brogues. Complete this outfit with a few necklaces and rings to dress it up, or stay neutral with a small scarf and a fedora.
Complete your outfit with a pair of nude or neutrally-toned shoes. Pumps or loafers would look great! A navy, blue, tan, or black blazer would work best with this combo. Anything too bright risks clashing with the pattern of your pants. If you want to go bold, try matching your blazer to your pants for an all-over plaid look. Finish off this outfit with a pair of small stud earrings. Add a tie if you want a more formal ensemble.
Green and black trousers would look nice with a black polo or get a little more stylized by wearing a green polo. Feel free to wear a jacket or hoodie if it’s a little chilly out. Just make sure it’s on the neutral side and doesn’t have a pattern that clashes with your pants. Complete this look with classic white sneakers and a long billowing scarf.
Wear high heeled shoes for a dressier look, or keep things minimalistic with flats or ankle boots. For example, a black turtleneck with burnt orange plaid pants would be superb for fall. If the weather is cooler, you could wear a nice peacoat or even a leather jacket. Add a few long necklaces to draw attention to your high neckline, and throw on some hoop earrings for a fun addition.
For example, a sea-green mohair sweater would look sweet with navy-blue plaid pants that have lines of light green or blue running through them. Add a little more style to your outfit by tucking the front of your sweater into your trousers. An oversized cardigan would work well, too. Wear it over top of a simple white or black tee. If you’re not a fan of the oversized look, go with a cropped sweater instead. Finish off this look with a small handbag and a few simple rings (make sure they don’t get caught in your sweater)!
You can go with a neutral sweatshirt to match any pair of pants, or add a pop of color with a bright one. Add a few chain necklaces to make this outfit a little more streetwear. Put on some sneakers and grab a backpack to complete this laid-back, casual look.
Finish your look with a pair of high heels or pumps and a simple leather clutch. Try wearing a red bodysuit with red plaid pants for a bright, vibrant look. Tone it down a little with a black or white bodysuit and neutral plaid pants. Throw your essentials into a backpack to keep this look laid-back and casual. Accessorize with a choker and some hoop earrings.
A light denim jacket will look best with this outfit—if there are patches, pins, or worn-out areas, that’s even better. To keep the look on the chic-grunge side, add a pair of lace-up combat boots. Converse shoes would also look great if you want something lighter. Add some spiked jewelry or a big handbag to make this outfit feel complete.
A black silk top will always work well, but white or cream would look nice, too. Dress up the outfit with heels or wear flats for a more casual vibe. To look super macho, pair your outfit with a leather purse or satchel. Finish off your look with a few leather bracelets or some thin necklaces.
