Mad for Plaid

Plaid is back with a vengeance, layering multi-color stripes over dresses, skirts, blazers, and even stockings. Over the years, plaid has been symbolic of many fashion trends and lifestyles. In today's fashion, depending on how it is worn, you may feel as if you are ready for a weekend in a wooded log-cabin, about to embark on an English fox hunt, or preparing for your first day of prep school. It doesn't matter how you wear it, as long as you join the world in going mad for plaid.

For the upcoming Holiday season, give your tree a log cabin makeover. Use thick-wired plaid ribbon as garland, accent the branches with natural pinecones, and hang woodsy themed ornaments from the ends with smaller plaid ribbons.
