How to Dress Down with Plaid

Plaid is a print that has a way of toning down dressier items when paired with them. Throwing a plaid shirt over a dress works really well for every-day wear even with more formal dresses. I used it to that effect here with a black lace dress paired with over-the-knee boots to make it comfortable for the colder weather. It also helps to tone down the delicacy of items that have more feminine prints like pretty florals. This can be done by paring them with a pair of plaid pants or by adding a plaid shirt. It has the same effect on more formal fabrics like satin and sequins to create a chic combination for any occasion.
