If you belong to famous ‘90s generation Z, then you will probably associate yellow plaid skirt with the movie Clueless. The main actress in the movie made plaid famous by wearing matchy skirt and jacket in lovely yellow color.
After that movie, plaid has quickly become a statement garment of many girls. It is mostly connected with punk and rock n roll style. However, then it vanished. It got out of style, and nobody was wearing it.
This year it came back through the big door. Plaid was everywhere, on skirts, blazers, and dresses. Everybody loved it! And now, I am going to show you how to recreate a bit retro and bit modern look with a yellow plaid skirt. Trust me; you will adore it.
