Smart Fall Trends For Men: Plaid

I have to admit the only plaid clothing you can find in my closet are pajamas. Nothing against plaid, it's just not a preference of mine. The resemblance to table cloth or gift wrapping paper, the Brawny guy or perhaps being in Catholic school from preschool to college are few of the reasons why plaid is M.I.A. in my closet. Being an equal opportunity fashionista, I'm open to trying on plaid apparel.

And since plaid apparel is a key trend for men this fall, I'm sure there will be no table cloth inspired shirts or jackets out there. I found a few plaid tops and a pair of really trendy trousers by Cheap Monday. My favorite so far and possibly buying (budget permitting) is a wool plaid blazer by Dolce & Gabbana.

Dolce & Gabbana Plaid Jacket $1,095.00 Saks	Old Navy Plaid Vest $39.50 Old Navy
Juicy Couture Plaid Shirt $148.00 Nordstrom	Scotch & Soda Plaid Shirt $98.00 Revolve Clothing
Dolce & Gabbana Plaid Blazer $825.00 Saks	Cheap Monday Plaid Pants $60.00 YOOX

Style advice: Try something new and go beyond the usual plaid shirts. Experiment and try on something different like plaid pants. Feeling daring? How about a plaid kilt! Have Fun.
