The blazer is back in action as soon as the cool weather hits. Blazers scream out a sophistication that is unmatched.

Yes, there are plenty of solid colored blazers. However, if there is a one print that is synonymous with fall, it has to be plaid. 

The timeless design of the plaid blazer is a must have item in capsule wardrobes. With its androgynous feel, there’s something to be said for the plaid blazer. It transcends seasonal trends and is a classic piece. 

Plaid Blazer Outfits

While there are endless ways to wear this classic piece, stick with neutral plaid blazer outfits to make the pattern pop.

It makes sense that the blazer would withstand the trend test—it’s an incredibly versatile piece that goes with anything from a crisp white button-down to a turtleneck. And it’s even perfect under a warm coat during the winter months ahead.

Scroll below for plaid blazer outfits to wear for the cooler season. 

1. Jeans

The timeless jeans-and- blazer combination is always in play, but the silhouette of an oversize jacket provides more coverage.

For a casual look, the plaid blazer is the perfect foundation for all other fall wardrobe essentials to shine.  

Straight leg jeans and the perfect red boot perfectly complement the fall outfit.

Pops of red have been trending on the fashion scene. The red shoes and skinny scarf add a fun and lively element to the plaid blazer outfit.

The color red pops out against the heritage pattern, and makes it feels very modern and chic.

Dark wash jeans provide a neutral base that complements the sophistication of the plaid blazer.

Finish off with a white tee and trendy flats to ground the look.

Large gold statement earrings or hoop earrings add an edginess to the preppy ensemble.

Get back to basics with a white button-down shirt and a pair of casual jeans. A white button down is a timeless piece that sees a lot of wear, no matter the time of year.

Masterfully mixing prints may seem intimidating, but mixing a print with plaid is a sartorial success. A striped blue shirt creates visual interest when paired with a plaid print.

Keep the remainder of the ensemble simple, with relaxed fit jeans and a pair of loafers to keep the focus on the top half.

Who says plaid blazers have to be dull?

For an effortless, cool-girl vibe, look no further than a graphic tee and pop of leopard. Punctuating an outfit with a playful touch, a graphic tee offers a fresh, cheeky vibe to plaid.

Be sure to add a touch of leopard for a fun, quirky look.

A black base, whether it be black pants or jeans, elevates the entire look to dressy and sophisticated.  

The beauty of this print is that it’s inherently chic because of its classic vibe- and it can easily work with all basics to create a polished, last-minute outfit.

2. Dress/Skirt

Plaid blazers have a preppy, school-uniform vibe that can’t be denied, but they are also more versatile than once believed.

Style the blazer over a silk dress for an ensemble that exudes an insouciant cool. Finish off with combat or ankle boots for a casual date night look.

How to make mini skirts feel more seasonally appropriate? Add an oversized plaid blazer and a large slouchy bag for an early fall ‘fit. 

Style tip: Swap out strappy sandals for tall boots to add warmth. 

3. Leather

Plaid can feel a bit too casual and underdressed.

Spice it up by adding the blazer to a leather piece.

Retaining the same versatility as any neutral shade, brown leather pants contribute to an elegant foundation to an outfit that can easily be styled with a plaid print.

Swap out your basic black jeans for black leather pants.

Give leather trousers a new season overhaul by opting for a classic plaid blazer. A gold statement piece, whether it be jewelry or accessories, add a luxe touch.
