From runway to office: plaid

Plaid has gone in and out over the years.  Remember Angela Chase’s clothes in My So-Called Life and the whole grunge period in the late 90s?  (I miss those days..)  Anyway, plaid made a comeback this year on the fall 2011 runway, like this dress by Thakoon:

Plaid also works for the office, as long as you don’t pair it with sneakers or go too casual.  Here are some ideas:

Pair this Free People blazer with black pants and a black shirt or over a black dress

Wear a plaid shirt on a casual day with jeans and heels

Do the Pippa Middleton by wearing a plaid tunic with leggings, boots and a cardigan

Wear a plaid skirt with a great pair of heels 

How do you wear plaid to work?
