Despite plaid being in every magazine and on the body of Lindsey Lohan as she's snapped gripping a big gulp and a cigarette, has anyone really gone so far as to bring it back? Unless you're famous, I really want to call bullshit if you answered "yes."It brings up an interesting temptation -- school girl sexy, a masculine edge to feminine softness, but really? Is that enough to avoid looking like a handy man? Probably not. It takes a hell of a lot of guts to wear plaid, let's be honest. These girls make it look cute because they are 80 pounds and don't get up and go to work in the morning. They actually can roll out of bed and they live in perpetual 80 degree weather so they don't have to layer in order to avoid freezing their nips off.
If I'm off base here, I'll eat my words, but until I see someone at Walgreens in a plaid button-down buying detergent, I'm sticking to them.
