Plus Size Plaid Shirts

It’s been a formal week so far. Now for something a little casual. I was reading that plaid shirts are a style trend for the new year and I’ve definitely been seeing them every where I turn. They are a great layering piece over camis and if you get a extra long one they can be worn well with tights or skinny jeans. Here are a few of my favorite plus size plaid shirts from three of my fave shops:
Nordstrom
The ruffle shirt on the left is $68 and the tunic on the right is $78. Both are great with jeans but the tunic is perfect for tights and boots but I’d open up a few more buttons on the tunic to expose a cami and maybe add a nice belt.

Torrid
The one on the left is $38 and has cinching detail at back, above breasts and on arms to remove the traditional box look. Love it! Almost as much as I love this plaid shirt dress for $48. All she’s just missing are the tights (I’d like to see red or grey)!

Lane Bryant
The Santeen shirt on the left is on sale for $17.80 and perfect for under a blazer. On the right, yes that is a flannel shirt. I love the look with leggings for lounging. The buffalo plaid sleep shirt is $36.50.

Tip 1: Don’t go crazy with the plaid shirts. Adding one or two to your wardrobe is all you need. Find a favorite but don’t buy one in ever shade. I’m just saying.
Tip 2: Enter “plaid” in the search box of your favorite store to see what they offer. Of the three above, Torrid seemed to have the most choices.

  1. I have always loved plaid, I got some plaid shirt a few months ago. I want more but don’t want to over do it on the trend. I’m liking that tunic from Nordstroms!

  2. I love how plaid looks on other people but somehow hate it on myself. Weird huh!? It’s one of those things I guess!
