Pretty in Plaid: 24 Chic Ways to Wear Plaid

When you think of fall, what patterns come to mind? We’re guessing fruit and floral weren’t your first choices. But plaid? Oh, yeah. It’s basically asking to be bundled up in with a warm cup of hot cocoa. Sometimes plaid is hard to pull off without looking like a lumberjack, though. So we’re going beyond the button down with this checked set: here are 24 chic ways to wear plaid.

1. ASOS Skater Skirt ($48): A green and black tartan is a fall classic. Transition this look to autumn with tights and knee-high boots for the ultimate cold-weather wear.

2. Forever 21 Plaid Top ($15): Boxy tees are simple go-tos that everyone should have in their wardrobes for those days when you just don’t know what to wear. The teal and blue plaid makes this toss-on piece extra special.

3. Eloquii Plaid Sheath Dress ($110): THIS is how you put a modern spin onplaid! We love the look of the leather sleeves combined with this intricate pattern.

4. BB Dakota Embeth Sweater ($121): This simple sweater mixes some of our faves: B+W, a chunky knit and plaid. Oh, we’re so in.

5. Woven Heart Plaid Shawl ($48): Say hello to your new favorite oversized sweater. Snuggle up on the couch or head out for brunch in this yellow tartan.

6. Missguided Lakela Mini Skirt ($19): Gingham is a classic plaid that everyone can rock. Take this light look from summer to fall with a chunky knit and your favorite booties.

7. Eloquii Studio Tartan Plaid Midi ($88): Update your quintessential red and black plaid look with a trendy midi skirt.

8. Avenue Hatchi Tunic ($34): You’ve probably been collecting sweaters and jumpers your whole life, but why not top off your collection with this green number? The asymmetric hem and ruched sleeves will make it stand out from the pack.

9. Tinley Road Peplum Skirt ($74): Color us happy because this one takes our summer fave, the nautical rope, and fall-ifies it using plaid. Yes, please!

10. Missguided Talia Checkered Romper ($19): Okay, we’ll admit this romper isn’t the MOST fall-appropriate look, but not everyone has a cool autumn… right?! Or pair it with knee socks and you’re good to go in chillier weather.

11. Eloquii Studio Tartan Plaid Coat ($198): The moto-style zip + leather detailing on this wrap coat make for one edgy look we can’t resist… especially with that glamour scarf.

12. Pim + Larkin Plaid Tank ($25): Still not over your favorite tank you rocked all summer long? Pair it with a long cardi and jeans for the perfect pumpkin picking attire.

13. Rails Ashton Plaid Button Down ($119): You can’t go wrong with a classic checkered button down, especially when it’s cut to fit your figure and distressed to perfection. Spice things up a bit with an unexpected color combo like this coral and blue.

14. Caslon Plaid Tee ($47): Like we said, we’re sporting boxy tees on the reg these days. Did we mention they’re the easiest piece to wear? Like, ever.

15. Gap Plaid Shirtdress ($42): Shirt dresses are a basic that every working woman should own. Make this colorful plaid the one that gets you get brownie points from everyone at the office (and us!).

16. ASOS Curve Swing Dress ($48): So chokers are back in, but swing dresses have always been a thing. A really, really good thing. Especially if the sleeves are plaid :)

17. Nasty Gal Fleece Sweatshirt ($58): We can’t decide what we like better, pumpkin pie or the pumpkin colored print on this popover. We’ll take both (+ extra whipped cream on the pie!).

18. Anthropologie Draped Top ($88): This understated color combo is perfect for days when you don’t feel like rockin’ the red and black classic. Pair with a fun #armparty and leather belt to get the look.

19. ASOS Check Skinny Pants ($67): Say hello to our new favorite patterned pants. Pair with heels for a day in the office or boots for a walk in the park.

20. Rag & Bone Buffalo Check Scarf ($175): Who doesn’t love a scarf to cozy up in during the cooler months? It doesn’t get any better than this B+W one.

21. J.Crew Embroidered Peasant Top ($50): Oh, yeah. It’s time to mix some patterns, tartan style. Toss on a beanie and this rolled-sleeve look is perfect for Saturday strolls.

22. O’2nd Vesna Check Blouse ($295): Being comfortable is key for those brisk days in October. That’s why you need this printed number to bundle up in.

Former Disney Channel star Dylan Sprouse and model Barbara Palvin are certainly living the sweet life after tying the knot in Palvin's native Hungary. The couple, who have been together for nearly five years, have always been pretty low-key — except for the occasional and undeniably adorable Instagram post (and a stunning wedding!). We are simply ~obsessed~ with this celebrity couple, especially after they pulled out all the stops for their couple's Halloween costume. Keep scrolling to see some of their best moments :').

For Halloween Dylan Sprouse and Barbara Palvin stunned as the Phantom and Christine from Phantom of the Opera. Dylan wore a mask and a black cape, while Barbara wore a beautiful white dress. While the costume is obviously a nod to the musical, it also totally reminds us of their day as bride and groom.

"In Sleep He Sang to Me," Barbara said in a post, quoting the musical's titular number. "@dylansprouse my forever Phantom."

Who did Dylan Sprouse marry?

On the couple's wedding day (July 15, 2023), Barbara wore a Vivienne Westwood wedding gown to celebrate her Hungarian nuptials, bringing together their nearest and dearest for an intimate(-ish) celebration. Barbara and Dylan tied the knot on her parent's property, which conveniently doubles as an event venue, with plans to host an larger wedding in California in the fall.

"This past weekend was supposed to be an intimate event, but we ended up having 115 guests in the end because there are a lot of people we care about, and we wanted them all to be there," Barbara told Vogue.

When did Dylan Sprouse and Barbara Palvin get engaged?

Barbara Palvin on Instagram: "♥️"

After months of speculation surrounding the couple's engagement, Dylan and Barbara confirmed their engagement in conversation with Sprouse's twin brother, actor Cole Sprouse, for V Magazine in June, sharing that they got engaged last September.

"We didn't necessarily feel the need to be fully transparent with the public about that aspect of our engagement," Dylan said. "What we wanted to do with Stephen [Gan, V editor-in-chief] and the V team is make something that was kind of tongue-in-cheek about the nature of private versus public. We're playing with the idea of perception."

Barbara noted that the lovebirds wanted to announce the news "on our time," adding, "When some people leaked the information that we got engaged, our PR team was like, 'Hey, so you guys should do maybe a post about it or talk to this magazine or talk to that magazine…' That really annoyed me because I knew we were building this story up. So, I'm very happy that we ended up doing it our way."

According to People, the couple met back in 2017 after a party when the Suite Life On Deck star slid into the model’s DMs (and as they say, the rest is history). The duo made their relationship Instagram official back in 2018 with Barbara’s sweet birthday tribute for Dylan’s 26th birthday.

Let’s be real here for a second though, we all knew they were endgame the minute Dylan went above and beyond to support Barbara at the Victoria Secret Fashion Show that same year (remember this viral video?). Three days after the fashion show, the Hungarian model told Vogue Australia that she hadn’t had a boyfriend in six years, but had now found “the perfect guy” in Dylan (we aren’t crying, you are).

How old are Barbara Palvin and Dylan Sprouse?

Barbara Palvin was born on October 8, 1993, making her 31 years old. Dylan Sprouse was born on August 4, 1992, meaning he's 32 years old. So there's only a one-year age gap between them!

Denimis essentially seasonless, but come fall and winter, we’re reaching for jeans and jackets like it’s a full-time job. Gone are the days of shorts and skirts – and even your favorite pair of leggings won’t cut it once the temperatures dip. It’s officially time to trade in your years-old skinny jeans for trendier denim pieces that’ll instantly lift your looks! Let these denim trends guide your every style move.

This season erases everything you thought you knew about jeans. They're no longer the uncomfortable, restricting silhouettes of years past – this year’s most popular denim styles are all about comfort. I’m talking baggy silhouettes and wide-leg styles that not only feel good on the body, but provide a unique shape to your outfits that you’ll have tons of fun playing with.

Baggy Jeans

Hollister

Hollister Low-Rise Dark Wash Super Baggy Jeans

I simply cannot escape the baggy jeans trend. After experiencing the sheer comfort of this pair from Hollister, I don’t see myself reaching for high-waisted, skin-tight styles any time soon.

Meredith Holser

The low waist aspect of this pair in particular provides an elongating effect to my torso, and I love wearing them with basic tops. They honestly feel like I’m wearing sweatpants, but don’t look lazy at all.

Urban Outfitters

BDG Ozzy Loose Jean

If it’s a relaxed fit you’re looking for, these loose jeans from BDG are it. They have a straight leg that’s reminiscent of vintage denim styles, so they’re super timeless and easy to wear with just about anything. I know what you may be thinking – baggy jeans aren’t necessarily flattering around the bum. And while that is true, everyone’s going crazy for this low-key style. You can definitely up the baggy look by going all-out with layers and accessories.

Super Wide Leg Jeans

Free People

Levi's Ribcage Wide-Leg Jeans

I’m a big believer that wide leg jeans look good on everyone. Their natural flared effect can help shape out your waist, adding to an hourglass look. They have a very laid back feel to them that looks truly iconic alongside some statement boots!

Abercrombie & Fitch

Abercrombie & Fitch High Rise Wide Leg Jean

Though you can shop wide leg jeans in all sorts of waist heights, I think high-rise styles are the most flattering of them all. This Abercrombie & Fitch pair comfortably (but snugly) hugs your waist and hips before falling into a more relaxed fit around your legs.

Huge Cuffs

Free People

We The Free Final Countdown Cuffed Low-Rise Jeans

Want that off-duty model look? Cuff it. Jeans with exaggerated cuffs are everywhere this season! They’re perfect for drawing attention to the bottom half of your outfits, so there's no excuse not to rock these with your favorite fall shoes!

American Eagle

American Eagle Stretch High-Waisted Stovepipe Cuffed Jean

The cuffing in question also works in a two-toned denim look that’s super easy to achieve. I love that this pair from American Eagle still boasts a simple, familiar silhouette, but has a unique style twist in the cuffs. I’d wear them with some fall-esque clogs and an oversized flannel up top.

Deep, Dark Washes

Gap

Gap Mid Rise '90s Loose Jeans

If I had to sum up the dark wash denim trend in one word, it’d be ‘sophisticated.’ The deeper, almost-black blue color is definitely less casual than a light or medium wash would be, so I think they’re perfect for elevating a still-cozy outfit.

J.Crew

J.Crew Denim Trouser

You could even wear them to the office with the right silhouette and matching garments – these loose-fitting denim trousers could become a total main character moment when paired with ballet flats, a belt, and a tailored cardigan.

Denim Barn Jackets

J.Crew

J.Crew Denim Barn Jacket

Moving away from pants territory, denim jackets will always be a proper fit for fall. Right now, barn jackets (also referred to as chore jackets or barn coats – they’re all the same style) are having a moment, taking on denim in the cutest way. This J.Crew jacket is the perfect final piece for layering on top of sweaters and flannels, and it would even look chic worn with a pair of jeans in a coordinating wash!

Free People

We The Free Denim Barn Coat

This Free People jacket boasts a contrasting corduroy collar that can add a bit of spice to your looks. The oversized, loose fit gives that cool-girl effect that works well with more form-fitting garments like dresses or skirts. I think this is a definite staple that you can wear year after year!
