Amber's DressWe often get e-mails and Facebook messages from iMag fans wanting to know what our hosts are wearing... Lucky for them, our resident style host Noelle Watters makes sure they are always looking their best in the hottest styles and most up-to-date trends. In this case we received an e-mail from Lauren Hunt inquiring about Amber's dress from the video, How to Use Your Curling Iron. Unfortunately, Amber (who looks fabulous) shot that video last summer and we the dress was from a vintage boutique. Fortunately, plaid continues to be a hot trend! Read on for our favorite plaid pieces for winter.

Professionally PlaidA sophisticated plaid is a great work option all year long. We love this strapless style from Haven worn with a blazer for day and bare shoulders at night. This ABS short sleeve style is another great choice. We would add some flair and wear this with purple tights and ankle boots! For more trends you can pull off at the office, click here.
Stella McCartney cropped blazer $195
Haven grey plaid strapless dress $88

Preppy PlaidYou don't have to look like a leprechaun to pull off this look. A plaid shirt can be sporty and stylish, like this Banana Republic style with a ruffled bib. We would wear with wide leg jeans and ballet flats. If you're just not sure this look is right for you, take it slow and try this tee. The price is right and the plaid isn't overwhelming. We would pair with skinny jeans.
Banana Republic ruffle bib plaid shirt $29.99
For All Mankind wide leg jeans $155
Charlotte Russe plaid bow tie tee $17.99
Topshop skinny jeans $80 -
