Hot Trends: Buffalo Plaid and Lumberjack Chic

Timberrrr!

Buffalo plaid and lumberjack chic are all over this season. (And not just on bearded lumberjacks or Al Borland style dads.) If you thought that plaid flannels were gone with the era of grunge, you were wrong, dear reader! Bold plaids (mostly in red and black) are all the rage, worn mostly in oversize shapes with fitted pants or leggings, exhibited by celebs below.

 


The lumberjack trend abounds on Etsy: bold plaids, silver axes and log accessories. It's refreshing to see the new directions independent designers can take with a pattern like plaid: new styles, reincarnated trends! We're all lumberjacks at heart.

I just did an illustration of a girl in a plaid shirt. I didn't realize I was being trendy! Me and trendy get together as often as a solar eclipse. It's all in the cosmos, LOL

Cute article

I love buffalo plaid - red, in particular.
Had a duvet made with matching curtains in red buffalo plaid flannel. It was a very cozy room.

Just rec'd a red buffalo plaid shirt from my son - he remembered the red buffalo plaid bedroom and how I liked it. It's very heavy so I wear it like a jacket - FUN!

Plaid never went out of style!

Maybe I'm just a closed grunger.
