Mad for Plaid: I Love the Lumberjane Look

on January 9, 2009 at 7:00 AM

I've been a fan of plaid since way back when grunge from Seattle first hit the music scene. I personally don't think the style has ever been "out," but right now these looks are certainly "in."

Are you a Lumberjane? I am!

I put some looks together in my virtual closet....

Xhilaration Plaid Fedora ($12.99 from Target)
Lulla Open Weave Plaid Square Scarf ($23.90 on sale from Nordstrom)
Sugar Halo boot ($74 on sale from Zappos)
Scottish Plaid Wedge Rainboots ($24.99 from Target) -- Wellies with a wedge!
Large Plaid Hairclips ($2.80 from Forever 21)
Yochi Plaid Bangles ($35 each from Ravinstyle)
Janis Plaid Woven Shirt III ($17.80 from Forever 21)
Plaid Belt ($19 on sale from Newport News)
Earflap Cadet in brown plaid ($24.99 on sale from Urban Outfitters)

Do you have some plaid in your closet?

Does hubbies plaid flanel shirts count? I love snuggling in them in the winter. But for myself, no haven't added any to my side of the closet.

LOL....I was at the mall yesterday and I noticed all the plaid. I was so tempted to try on this one plaid shirt, it kind of looks like the one in the pic. above but talked myself out of it. I may just have to go back

I love plaid! I stole a shirt from my dad's closet (he has always worn plaid flannel shirts). It was long enough to be a dress so I paired it with some tights, boots, and strapped a thick belt around ithe waist and voila! Instant fashion!

Yes! Hubby's shirts count. My DH has one that I love. I can wear it with a belt and jeans or tights -- so cute. Or yes...even just around the house since it's super cozy.
