Plaid is one of those things to check off on the list of Autumn 'must-have'. I've recently shared something on the MV Facebook page (click here) from GQ.com; a little basic knowledge in getting to know your different types of plaid. I know what you're thinking, "Plaid? Really? I'll look like my grandfather!" Well, sure you can achieve to look like your grandfather or know what to wear it with and how to wear it to bring in the new. Again, like so many other vintage styles, there are new cuts to deal with and that is more pleasing to the eye. It's all about the modern fit and the complimenting of one piece to another.
What I've done today is share with you two different looks so you can have an idea how to pull off plaid.

Look 1
 |
| Etro Slim-Fit Plaid Tweed Blazer |
 |
| Canali - Button-Down collar check cotton shirt |
 |
| A.P.C. - Petit Standard Overdyed slim-fit jeans |
 |
| Converse - Jack Purcell leather sneakers |
 |
| Falke - Shorty cotton-blend socks |
 |
| Timex x J.Crew - Timex 1600 |
For 'Look 1', make sure you tuck your shirt in as to keep the quality of the blazer where it rightfully is. You want to look sharp so make sure that shirt is tucked in, regardless of this outfit looking casual. And yes, we've started to wear socks again. It is a new season and no longer summer, but if you find yourself in a warmer climate, feel free to go sockless.
Look 2
 |
| Paul Smith London - Abbey Slim-fit check wool blazer |
 |
| Burberry London - Slim-fit printed cotton and silk-blend shirt |
 |
| H&M pants |
 |
| Paul Smith - Polka-dot cotton-blend socks |
 |
| Zara - Shoe with Buckles (monkstraps) |
 |
| Alexander Olch - Plaid woven-wool pocket round |
 |
| WANT Les Essentiels de la Vie - Kennedy Money Clip leather card holder |
 |
| Uniform Wares - 300 Series Chronograph wristwatch |
For 'Look 2', I hope I don't have to tell you that your shirt must be tucked in. And if you feel more comfortable with a classic white shirt, that's perfectly fine to substitute. But it's good to add more character to the entire look with the shirt given in this second look. As for the watch, it can be round or square, doesn't matter as long as the strap/band is black in leather or any other material.
