There's something so very laid-back cool about a slightly oversized plaid shirt I've always been drawn to. I can remember stealing my dad's work shirts in elementary school back in the early '90s, when Nirvana, Pearl Jam and other grunge bands made the lumberjack fabric mainstream. And in college, I would only buy my plaid shirts from the men's department in order to achieve that same loose, relaxed feel. I have since stopped borrowing from the boys, but I still can't resist pairing even my girliest plaid with more masculine items, such as distressed jeans, a slouchy beanie and heavy metal touches like chains and studs, to help balance out the mix.
