Mad for Plaid

Whenever I see plaid, I think of Gerard Butler in a tartan kilt, kind of liked he one he wore at the UK premiere of Law Abiding Citizen. Super sexy! This look definitely makes me “mad for plaid.”

But seriously, I love the colorful look of plaid, whether it be the classic blue and green plaid or black and red plaid, or even the iconic Burberry plaid.

Here are some of my favorite plaid looks that are so popular right now.

PLAID SCARVES

I recently got a ModCloth plaid blanket scarf in my Fall FabFitFun box and I love it. It is large and extremely warm! Here are some other scaves I’m loving.

Who else is “mad for plaid?” InStyle magazine, that’s who. Check out their graphic plaids in the “fashion” section on their website. WWD is also says that plaid is still a trend going into 2017.

Are you seeing plaid? Do you like this trend? How are you wearing plaid this holiday season?
