One of the easiest (but also chicest) looks for fall starts with a simple shirt dress! I love the look of pairing an oversized plaid button down with boots for running errands during the daytime or a night out on the town – you can easily add more layers depending on the temperature.

When I was in New York this past weekend, I wore a black/red checked shirt dress (that was LESS than $25!) with a neutral pair of over the knee boots, a sleeveless black jacket & a bright blue, quilted bag to add a pop of color. You can recreate this look on your own with ease – shop my exact items below, as well as my choices for some other great plaid shirt dress options that won’t break the bank!
