I appreciate all of the comments. Yes, this plaid shirt stuff is hard work I did try a couple on at Zara too but they didn't seem to work either. I'll keep my eye out &amp; see how the LLBean one works out.</p> <p>In the meantime I picked up some mixed media leather look pants from Zara today. Assumed they'd be a keep but maybe I should run those by the masses too ;). I love YLF. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krplaid-experiment-and-more#post-1389224 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 02:26:07 +0000 Kristin SF 1389224@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's so funny. I thought #14 was the best, too. The most chic at-home outfit I've seen. I might need to upgrade my loungewear! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krplaid-experiment-and-more#post-1389220 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 02:21:16 +0000 Angie 1389220@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh yes. Mega adorable in #14. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krplaid-experiment-and-more#post-1389219 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 02:19:34 +0000 Suz 1389219@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Angie said!!&nbsp;</p> <p>Buy oh my heavens you look adorable in your final outfit. Simple but elegant lounge in the housewear.&nbsp;</p> <p>Who knew plaid shirts could be so much work, right? The colours on this one are great.&nbsp;</p> <p>I have already tried and discarded a bunch. The LL Bean one that I want will not be in stock until January..... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krplaid-experiment-and-more#post-1389202 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 02:05:43 +0000 catgirl 1389202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG I can not believe I successfully spotted an issue! Sorry about that, Jackie - it's a great shirt and you will find yours, probably married to my long blazer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krplaid-experiment-and-more#post-1389198 Tue, 04 Nov 2014 02:03:18 +0000 Angie 1389198@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you need to pass on the mens fit plaid shirt, Jackie. It's far too big on the arms. I don't mind the scale of the plaid - FUN - but the fit has to be right to pull off the scale. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krplaid-experiment-and-more#post-1389037 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 23:15:48 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1389037@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I try not to look at what other people say, before I produce my reaction, but I also think the plaid is too large in scale. Love the colors on you, though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krplaid-experiment-and-more#post-1389033 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 23:06:36 +0000 texstyle 1389033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the scale of the plaid is a bit too large - that was my first thought.&nbsp; Pretty colors. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krplaid-experiment-and-more#post-1389024 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 22:55:59 +0000 Meredith 1389024@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, I'd like to see this side by side with your L.L. Bean shirt when it arrives because&nbsp;I am not sure about the scale of the plaid. &nbsp;It seems a little overwhelming on your frame. &nbsp;I like the shirt best under the blue cardigan and teal sweater. &nbsp;Gorgeous colors! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krplaid-experiment-and-more#post-1389016 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 22:48:36 +0000 catgirl 1389016@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I could be wrong.&nbsp; My eye always goes right to shoulders, of course.&nbsp; With toppers it's not an issue anyway!<br /> I always wore my shirts like this back in my 20s and loved it.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krplaid-experiment-and-more#post-1389006 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 22:44:55 +0000 jackiec 1389006@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting, Una - you think the shoulder seams are too low? Didn't feel like that in person but I will double check that. That's why I love it here, you guys think of things I don't even notice. Thanks!</p> <p>I am trying to be more thoughtful about my purchases, so this is great. Much appreciated </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krplaid-experiment-and-more#post-1388999 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 22:40:51 +0000 catgirl 1388999@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the colors and the oversized fit, but I'd like to see the shoulder seams in the right place.&nbsp; You are so lean and model-like, I feel you can pull this off anyway.&nbsp; That's the only thing that caught my eye. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/krplaid-experiment-and-more#post-1388992 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 22:34:21 +0000 jackiec 1388992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hit the mall this AM because I needed to be out of the house. I've been wanting to check out some plaids so here's what shook down.</p> <p>Picked up this AE plaid flannel shirt in a men's XS. The SA actually recommended it over the ladies' version (which I couldn't even find). I was drawn to the colours so gave it a whirl. XS fit better in the shoulders, but is snug across the hips. Not so much of an issue if I keep to tucking it. Showed the S version in the changeroom. I felt oddly like I was re-living the 90's and then got all confused about fit. Should I be sizing up or down? Gah! I also picked up a hectically oversized hoodie for my at-home-casual-workout-walk-the-dog capsule (#13). Keep?. It was buy-one-get-one-half off. So I'm showing the shirt in a million iterations here. I realized that i purchased a lot of teal/green knitwear last season in an attempt to break free of too much black/grey. I also realized that I am waging full-on war with a woodpecker that is trying to break into my house. In between trying on outfits I was banging on walls, running around the top floor trying to scare the darn thing off.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thoughts? I will reserve judgement....</p> <p>I have the LLBean scotch plaid enroute to my house. It should arrive late next week.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks in advance. One final pic #14&nbsp;- keeping it even&nbsp;<i>more&nbsp;</i>real today. This is what I changed into. Tired from all the rain outside, and all of the outfit swaps. Phew! </p>
