I said, “What is there to get? They’re both plaid.”
She responded with, “I don’t think that’s how it works.”
I responded by laughing really loudly and saying “That’s exactly how it works.”
The thing is, I honestly do think this outfit makes perfect sense. I’ve had the skirt for a while but the sweater vest is a recent thrifted acquisition. But, when I tried the vest on, my immediate* thought was that I would wear it with this skirt.
For me, a plaid with a plaid is nothing but good, especially when the other rules of pattern mixing are followed; these pieces have a similar scale and they share a predominant color.

Okay, so I guess both pieces being plaid isn’t what makes these pieces work together, but I still maintain that they do work.
Happy Thursday, All!

*Okay, that’s not entirely true. My actual immediate thought when trying this vest on was “holy side-boob!” as it’s open basically to the waist. But, my second thought was to pair it with this skirt. I swear.
