![Do you have any decor-related holiday traditions? 🎄
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A Christmas village has been part of my annual decorations for as long as I can recall! My mom put them on top of my piano when I was a little girl, and when I got older and moved out, I received some pieces of my own (with a few from my childhood mixed in). 🤎
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When I chose to renovate my living room this year, I knew I’d need to find the perfect new space to display my village, come Christmas-time. This gorgeous @sauderusa cubby shelf felt like it was *made* to show off all my favorite pieces! 😍 It has been so much fun to find new ways to #SauderStyle these shelves over the last few months! 🙌🏼
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Each evening, I turn the lights on and feel a little bit of Christmas spirit come to life inside my heart. ✨ Which pieces would you want in your holiday village? 🏘️

Hold onto your hats, people. This plaid outfit is one you’ll want to copy immediately.
Are you taking notes? Good. During autumn, I shop for plaid like my life depends on it. Typically, I gravitate towards the classic button-up. However, this year I chose to style a blouse that’s not so … average. I wanted something with a little extra flair, and I got it when I found this ruffle top. Now I’m sharing the ultimate formula for styling an outfit revolving around plaid.
With Thanksgiving just a week away (how did that happen so quickly?) I’m preparing to get cozy and festive because we keep things casual around here! So this plaid look – or some variation of this plaid look – will be my Turkey-Day ensemble, for sure!
outfit details
similar top | jeans | similar booties | similar hat | cardigan
This is the formula for the ultimate plaid outfit that you’ll want to copy immediately:
Step 1 – find a plaid blouse that isn’t your average button-up. Something with a little more life to it – like mine with the flirty ruffles!
Step 2 – add a cozy cardigan to keep you warm. The temperatures here dropped from 90° to 55° like they saw a state trooper, so we’re finally able to bring out those sweaters and cardis from the back of the closet.
Step 3 – accessorize! I’ve chosen some super versatile cognac booties (I’ve worn this pair for 3 years now and have zero complaints) and a statement hat. There are only a handful of outfits this hat looks nice with, and I’m happy to report that this is one of them!
I love all the varieties of plaid tops you suggest here. Any body type could find one they like! And you sold me on the hat. So cute with the outfit!
I’ve never heard of Westmoon LA, but now that you’ve introduced me I need to check them out asap! Love how this isn’t your average plaid shirt, and it brings something different and unique to the table. As for the styling, I can’t get over how comfy and cozy your cardigan is, and the hat and booties are the perfect finishing touches. Practically the perfect casual, fall look 👌🏼

That little ruffle detail on the plaid top really makes it! It really is so unique and perfect for finding a fun way to switch up plaid for fall. I love it paired with that sweater on top and those fun booties!
