While animal print was one of the biggest trends last year, you’ve probably noticed that there’s another classic pattern that’s having a major moment right now: plaid. From checked two-piece suits to tartan skirts, the fashion world can’t seem to get enough of this traditional print, and neither can we. If you’re looking to wear this statement-making trend in a new way, a pair of plaid booties will do just the trick.
This Cher Horowitz–approved print in the form of ankle boots will be a chic and unexpected addition to all of your outfits. Style them with a pair of dark-wash jeans and a cool moto jacket for a foolproof cold-weather ensemble, a classic LBD, or another plaid piece for an outfit that’ll grab anyone’s attention.
