If you aren't Scottish or underage, you must obey a few simple rules to pull this one off without looking like a Queen Elizabeth wanna-be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rules for Plaid:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;Do not combine it with any other patterned garment, not even another plaid. Enough is enough.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Avoid matching your other garments to one of the dominant colors in the plaid. Try to bring out one of the lesser colors in the pattern, or wear a color that is complementary to the whole palette.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Plaid is a bold statement, so keep accessories to a minimum.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Plaid looks modern and crisp when worn in sleek cuts. Try pencil skirts, tailored jackets, and tights. &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Avoid wearing it with denim or chunky shoes, lest you be mistaken for an early nineties Seattle grunge rocker.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Break any or all of the above rules if it looks truly amazing.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;The Frugal Fashionista&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7083116532834403529-2087257912766099546?l=cutratecouture.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cutratecouture.blogspot.com/feeds/2087257912766099546/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7083116532834403529&amp;postID=2087257912766099546' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7083116532834403529/posts/default/2087257912766099546'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7083116532834403529/posts/default/2087257912766099546'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cutratecouture.blogspot.com/2008/09/wear-this-trend-plaid.html' title='Wear This Trend: Plaid'/><author><name>Emily the Great and Terrible</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03574723350924761449</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7083116532834403529.post-6114016074924345634</id><published>2008-09-12T14:43:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-12T14:46:37.656-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Why Cut-Rate Couture?</title><content type='html'>Are you tired of looking through Vogue and feeling like you can't afford, well, anything?
