How To Wear Checkered Shirts And Look Like A Total Boss
A checkered shirt, also known as plaid or flannel, is a must have for any wardrobe. It can be worn with jeans, a dress, as a cardigan, around your waist; the outfit choices are limitless! One of my favourite fashion staples is a checkered shirt. I could wear checkered shirts all year round, but honestly, they look the best in fall and winter. And don’t forget that they’re comfortable, cosy and usually inexpensive. With such a diverse item of clothing you will be ready to take on any weather in any climate. So here is how to wear checkered shirts and look like a total boss!
1. As a cardigan
An easy way to look like a total boss in your checkered shirt is to wear it over the top of a dress like this. Is it a way to spice up your outfit instead of wearing a cardigan or jacket. Either wear it over-sized like this one or tight fitting to show off your waist. This is one of the best tips on how to wear checkered shirts!
