How to Wear Tartan

Love the tartan looks that are oh-so-hot right now, but aren't sure about how you'd actually work them in real life? We tackle the tartan trend from flashes of tartan accessories through to bold, bright and mis-matched looks...  

As a flash of fun
I love the little flash of tartan on the Minx boot, just the thing for livening up basic jeans and adding a little life to an otherwise plain outfit. Add tartan accents to your outfit for an extra punch, that won't leave you looking or feeling too 'out there'.


 
1: Minx Tartan wish $239.90 from Mischief
2: Levis Jodphur Traditional rinse $119.90 from Just Jeans
3: Moondust tank $89.90 from Lippy
4: Biker jacket AU$699.95 from Witchery
5: Grazia bag $60.00 from Dotti
 
As the outfit key
A reasonably plain check gives this dress a really great finish, especially when considering just how basic it is. If you want to make a really bold statement, a check or tartan print is a really great way to do it. Choose a basic piece and let the pattern do all the talking, breaking it up with a belt and accessories.


 
1: Poly Check Oversized shirt $59.90 from Jeanswest
2: Fuelray $319.90 from Overland
3: Sterling Silver Huffer Pink Do Your Thing ring $220.00 from Walker and Hall
4: Belt $39.90 from Wild Pair
5: Nixon Abbey tote US$100 from Karmaloop
 
Mix and Matched
Mix and match your tartans, from footwear to tops and jacket. The pattern on pattern gives an instant feeling of depth and drama! Perfect for when you want to get that lush winter look on a budget.


 
1: Guerra Grey Navy Check shoe $179.00 from Good as Gold
2: Cap Sleeve Tunic top $49.95 from Just Jeans
3: Ladkah skirt $119.90 from Lippy
4: Black Sweetheart bag US$48.00 from Karmaloop
5: Tartan bomber $39.95 from Valleygirl
