I own quite a few plaid shirts and while I adore the soft material of Rails shirts what makes this Como Vintage plaid shirt stand out in my closet is that it is not only soft and has blues in it, but also, the cut is flattering. Many plaid shirts (or any shirt really) have a straight shape to the body of the shirt. This one nips in slightly around the waist, making it more flattering on my pear shape, at least to my eye. It's less boxy which I really like.</p> <p><b>Angie</b> - *high five to plaid and stripe love* I've definitely learned that you never know where or when you'll find your next favorite wardrobe item, so I always keep a look out. :)</p> <p><b>Jaime</b> - Years ago, when I first joined YLF, I exclusively wore bootcut and flare jeans. I'll never give them up, although I've added many more jean silhouettes over time.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Karie</b> - *high five for plaid and stripe love* I also like the volume with volume look from the striped sweater and wide leg jeans. It's a nice change from a form fitting outfit.</p> <p><b>Bonnie</b> - *high five for plaid and stripe love* They are classics that I'll always have a place in my wardrobe. Thanks for looking! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stripes-and-plaid#post-2379431 Fri, 31 Jan 2025 03:10:32 +0000 Bonnie 2379431@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stripes and plaid are favorite patterns of mine, too. Love the blues of the first outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stripes-and-plaid#post-2379430 Fri, 31 Jan 2025 03:01:33 +0000 Karie 2379430@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also love stripes and plaids. My favorite is 4-6. I’m currently loving wide leg jeans/pants and roomy sweaters. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stripes-and-plaid#post-2379425 Fri, 31 Jan 2025 02:03:10 +0000 Jaime 2379425@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Flare jeans are great on you. I am definitely in my bootcut/flared jean sugar eye phase. Excellent patterns too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/stripes-and-plaid#post-2379404 Thu, 30 Jan 2025 18:16:20 +0000 Angie 2379404@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wooohooo!

How fun that my outfits this week are very timely with today's blog post <a rel="nofollow" href="https://youlookfab.com/2025/01/29/lift-your-mood-and-your-outfits-with-patterns/">Lift Your Mood and Your Outfits With Patterns.</a></p> <p><b>#1 to #3 - Plaid Shirt and Flare Jeans</b><br />What I'm wearing today. This Como Vintage Plaid shirt I picked up a few years ago at Tractor Supply Co. Who would have thought that my favorite plaid shirt would be found in a home improvement store? </p> <p>The WHBM flare jeans are another well loved item in my wardrobe along with this Vneck T which is the favorite fit by Eddie Bauer and does not shrink. My olive green Spring Step sneakers are water resistant which is going to come in handy during our wet spring which is coming up fast. I finished off the outfit with a green Boden belt and a Coach tote bag in blue.</p> <p><b>#4 to #6 - Stripes and Wide Leg Jeans</b><br />A classic winter outfit formula for me is boots, jeans, and sweaters. Especially striped sweaters! I paired this navy striped sweater from Gap with Paige Vintage Brunette wide leg jeans, and Marfil Pikolinos boots. This ivory/cream crossbody Coach bag has been a workhorse this winter because it pairs so well with the ivory/cream boots in my wardrobe.</p> <p>Thanks for looking! </p>
