"Wearing tartan in fall is totally expected, but breaking it out for spring shows you&amp;#x27;re a master of personal style. Dig deep into your closet (or your boyfriend&amp;#x27;s!), pull out your plaid shirt, and get three new ways to wear it, after the jump. Channel your inner Ellie May Clampett: There&amp;#x27;s something so summery and all-American about a sleeveless plaid top. Take a pair of scissors to a $10 WalMart version for an authentically white trash look, then add super-slim capri jeans and a fabulous pair of heels, like Sarah Jessica Parker, to balance out the yee-haw factor. More Forever 21... Mix and match: You can run the risk of looking like a Catholic school girl or a lumberjack when you wear plaid, so make sure your version is totally modern by mixing and matching different tartans. Wear an oversize black and white buffalo plaid shirt with a smaller patterned gingham skirt, or pair a wide-check flannel with a pair of old school country club Bermuda shorts. More Forever 21...

Add a little luxe: You dolls know we&amp;#x27;re big fans of creating contrast in your wardrobe around here, and what better way is there to do that than by glamming up something as humble as a plaid shirt? Wear it with a sequined skirt and ankle boots for a Friday night out; add metallic heels and a glittery belt for a bit of weekend glitz; or throw a faux fur vest on top to get in touch with your inner Rachel Zoe.
