Going with the Item-Outfit-Capsule test from the wise Angie:</p> <p>Item -- passes this test with Lear-jet flying colors<br /> Outfit -- Now, your turn -- how many outfits can you come up with wearing this shirt?<br /> Capsule -- Which capsule does this fall in? And does it fall in more than one capsule? Because it's silk it *could* be dressed up for the opera but because it's silk it wouldn't make sense for hiking. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-another-plaid-shirt#post-760388 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 19:00:13 +0000 catgirl 760388@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, man, Anna - I've been TRYING to ignore this shirt since I saw it (around NAS?) and now you're pushing me over the edge... </p> <p>H...<br /> E....<br /> L...<br /> P.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-another-plaid-shirt#post-760308 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 18:00:21 +0000 rachylou 760308@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mm. That's hard to resist. Silk, you say? Plaid silk?</p> <p>Forget about you need, *I* need... lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-another-plaid-shirt#post-760218 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 16:27:59 +0000 cciele 760218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, that shirt is gorgeous! I totally can see you wearing it Anna. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-another-plaid-shirt#post-760170 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 15:46:26 +0000 catgirl 760170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's not sheer - it's the weight of the regular silk Equipment shirts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-another-plaid-shirt#post-760011 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 12:46:04 +0000 Preppy Pear 760011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous! How semi-sheer are we taking? That would be a factor for me.</p> <p>Also, I've never seen Man Repeller before, but I think we're going to become good friends! Thanks so much for sharing the link! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-another-plaid-shirt#post-759913 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 06:32:56 +0000 Scarlet 759913@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just need to reiterate that I love everything about that shirt. Somebody must have it! (although you do confuse me with intermittent SYC talk, but in this case I would say SYC be damned unless the moeny really isnt there, because I have never seen anything like the color, pattern, fabric, fit shown here) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-another-plaid-shirt#post-759875 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 03:49:42 +0000 Mo 759875@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>so . . . is SYC not a priority in this line of questioning? I'm tempted to say stick with what you have unless the priority has shifted. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-another-plaid-shirt#post-759872 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 03:49:00 +0000 catgirl 759872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anna, I've had that shirt in my wishlist for two months, waiting to see if the price ever drops. I tried it on and I'm a size S in the Brett style, just FYI. It's really gorgeous and classy, doesn't look like flannel plaid but more like the elegant silk that it is. If only it weren't $250! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-another-plaid-shirt#post-759870 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 03:45:53 +0000 DonnaF 759870@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks like you; assume you would wear it around town and reserve your cotton one for hiking and camping? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-another-plaid-shirt#post-759715 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 22:31:53 +0000 Jjsloane 759715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm into plaid shirts, but I kind of need them to feel soft and cozy so I ordered a basic flannel plaid (ll bean because the j crew one went out of stock before I could order). The Equipment one is lovely and probably more your style, but I just don't know about a $248 plaid shirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-another-plaid-shirt#post-759701 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 22:08:04 +0000 Scarlet 759701@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my gosh yes--so cool!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-another-plaid-shirt#post-759695 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 21:50:52 +0000 Karie 759695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this too - casual, dressed down plaid, yet dressed up, drapey silk! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-i-need-another-plaid-shirt#post-759665 Sun, 28 Oct 2012 20:46:52 +0000 annagybe 759665@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love my black/white/grey plaid shirt.

My existing shirt is just standard cotton. </p>
