A pattern that’s been worn for hundreds of years, plaid isn’t a fad.
In skirt form, this print checks all the boxes, from comfy to classic.

Whether paired with a cozy sweater or a chic matching blazer,
a plaid skirt is super versatile, making it an essential piece in your closet all year round.

Combining the skirt with its matching blazer automatically creates a cohesive look for the office. An argyle sweater ties the outfit together, while the lace-up boots offer both function and style.

An airy blouse lends a soft, feminine touch, and adding a pair of chunky loafers with metallic hardware and a clutch in a bold colour gives the look some edge.
