Rita, I don't think you can go wrong here so go with your gut. You wear strong colors well. I miss you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1392120 Fri, 07 Nov 2014 03:57:44 +0000 modgrl 1392120@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I couldn't make peace with any of the red llbean flannels.... They all seemed too Christmasy to me. I ended up with the white and green/blue plaid. I got my normal size, SP. It is a nice relaxed fit, with shoulders and sleeve length in the right places for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1387765 Sun, 02 Nov 2014 07:28:51 +0000 Elly Heppener-Tromp 1387765@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the red-white one. Recently bought an Esprit plaid shirt; red with thin cobalt and ecru stripes with contrasting red collar and cuffs. Tailored it myself slightly&nbsp; for a bit of waist. Big difference. Looks bright and smart casual with ecru tee.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1372590 Thu, 09 Oct 2014 15:42:04 +0000 dashielle (Ann) 1372590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like others, I have avoided plaid since the Seattle grunge "movement" as being to casual for my current taste. I have been swayed, however and Now have one of the AE's! In the process of figuring out styling and feeling like once I'm done, I may need another lighter version. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1372582 Thu, 09 Oct 2014 15:12:37 +0000 Sveta 1372582@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, you lead by example! :-)<br />I think if I order a couple of shirts for my hubby as a gift and sheak one for myself it should be buying&nbsp;guilt free, right? Red and white it is then - I like that it is the lightest of them all. I think I will order M - I am afraid S would be too short and I have wide shoulders.&nbsp;If M is too big maybe it can be altered... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1372564 Thu, 09 Oct 2014 14:22:12 +0000 Jjsloane 1372564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice to see you again Rita! Glad you ordered the 1st one. I'm partial because I have it from last year. I'm debating which to add this year. Can't wait to see you model it for us.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1372558 Thu, 09 Oct 2014 14:17:28 +0000 Angie 1372558@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm heavily into&nbsp;plaid shirts this year Sveta, so I might be a little biased. You will LOVE your plaid shirt. So versatile, fun&nbsp;and cozy. I vote the red and white. And you need it now. xo</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1372299 Thu, 09 Oct 2014 00:58:04 +0000 Sveta 1372299@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So much plaid shirt love! Unfortunately I am plaid shirt shy: I tried several last year&nbsp;but they never felt like me. Weird because I adore plaid jackets and trousers. I guess plaid shirt always felt too casual for my style.</p> <p>However after seeing Angie and Inge&nbsp;wearing their plaid shirt in a dressy way I may be ready to make it my wildcard. Need to decide on the color though. I do prefer it with more white in the pattern so - navy or red?<br />I think while I am on it I will also order a couple for my hubby as Christmas present :-)</p> <p>Rita, it was nice seeing you again, you look great. I missed you!&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1372264 Wed, 08 Oct 2014 23:58:15 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1372264@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>SQUEE!!!! Rita - how are you? So nice to see your gorgeous face again :)</p> <p>LOVE the plaid shirt with the white in it and you will look fantastic wearing it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1372237 Wed, 08 Oct 2014 22:51:01 +0000 Deborah 1372237@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rita, good to see you!&nbsp; I also prefer the first one.&nbsp; Hope you will show us how it looks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1372187 Wed, 08 Oct 2014 21:53:35 +0000 Angie 1372187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>AE is a fun place to shop, Jackie. We have to mix up those pieces though - otherwise we look like American school kids. Personally, I would like to look more grown-up than that. xo</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1372182 Wed, 08 Oct 2014 21:47:37 +0000 jackiec 1372182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great shirts! I like the first one too.</p> <p>Angie I think I'm going to try to hit up AE soon. I'd like to hop on this plaid bandwagon for a bit of a fall refresh </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1372180 Wed, 08 Oct 2014 21:43:28 +0000 Angie 1372180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah. There is hope for me after all. And I'm excited about your plaid shirts, ladies. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1372174 Wed, 08 Oct 2014 21:37:03 +0000 Suz 1372174@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Angie and Rita!&nbsp;</p> <p>Angie, I am almost 100% sure that they added the XXS quite recently. Because I added that shirt to my "Finds" a few weeks ago -- and the size did not show up then. I'm glad I waited! :)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1372057 Wed, 08 Oct 2014 18:14:51 +0000 citygirldc 1372057@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey lady. Haven't seen you in a while. I like the first one because it's slightly brighter and may work with your coloring. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1372049 Wed, 08 Oct 2014 18:02:55 +0000 modgrl 1372049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I ordered my normal size. I want it to be roomy for layering in winter. Suz, try the shirt! I can't wait to see how you style it!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1372020 Wed, 08 Oct 2014 17:14:28 +0000 Angie 1372020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh WOW. They now have an XXS at LL. Bean, Suz. And that's the size to try. I didn't see that size till right now. Perhaps they added it in later? Or I need more tea when I order clothing online.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1372017 Wed, 08 Oct 2014 17:12:44 +0000 Angie 1372017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, the smallest size might be too big for you, because it is on me. A warning since we wear a similar size.&nbsp;I did better with the AE plaid shirt which I am wearing right now in bright citron and fushia, similar to the one below. (I'm a bit plaid shirt happy for Fall and now have three).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1372005 Wed, 08 Oct 2014 16:41:32 +0000 Suz 1372005@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm planning to get that one, too, Rita. So we'll be shirt twins! :)&nbsp;</p> <p>You look so pretty!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1371995 Wed, 08 Oct 2014 16:23:15 +0000 modgrl 1371995@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome! Thanks for the advice lovely ladies! I am getting ready to order!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1371994 Wed, 08 Oct 2014 16:19:44 +0000 Diana 1371994@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For you, I like the one with more white.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1371993 Wed, 08 Oct 2014 16:13:18 +0000 Angie 1371993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the first one better. I am partial to plaid shirts with lots of white. They run big so size down. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1371989 Wed, 08 Oct 2014 16:00:23 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1371989@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I too was glad to see the LL Bean shout out - they and LE both make great long lasting flannel. I like the first color for you - has a bit more contrast in the shades with the white and might be more versatile. Both are lovely though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/joining-the-plaid-shirt-party#post-1371986 Wed, 08 Oct 2014 15:57:12 +0000 modgrl 1371986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've always loved the LL Bean Men's flannel plaid shirts. I'm so pleased to see they are now available in traditional prints in women's sizes.... but which print to get? I love them all! Help me decide&nbsp;between the Dress Stewart and the Prince Charles... or any of the other <a rel="nofollow" href="http://http://www.llbean.com/llb/shop/70362?page=scotch-plaid-shirt&amp;attrValue_0=Navy+Tartan&amp;cvosrc=Affiliate.linkshare.TnL5HPStwNw&amp;qs=3080290_TnL5HPStwNw-OpHJdCVmIY9ZnAff.qXa9Q'">colors</a> if you think they would be a better choice for me. I attached a recent picture. Thanks in advance for any help &lt;3</p>
