This is, I will admit, a personal favourite of mine both on Stardoll and in the real world.
The first great thing about tart is, as with most trends recently, just how many variations of it there are. There's pink to black, red, green, and everything that comes in between.
For the most part, this trend has totally taken over skirts and shirts. And they've been an essential scarf print for a while. But, there is definitely no shortage in other items - I found a good number of hats, shoes, headscarves, bags,glasses, and phone cases, among a few other bits and pieces.
What I personally love about plaid and tartan type prints is just how much you can pair them with. They're great with almost any colour, and are a great base for print mixing. I even found a pre-mixed skirt with tartan and floral, shown top right!
Another big plus is that most people already have plaid in their closet. Even though it's become very popular lately, a plaid button down or scarf has long been a great basic piece for all wardrobes, because it really is versatile. Which means this is one trend you can feel safe to invest in for the future! However, you will need to sew on patches or pockets if you want to update old items, which is a little less worth it in the long run.
One cool thing I found while browsing Polyvore was the varying models. There were all kinds of girls - and guys - wearing plaid pieces! Often I've been finding that there's a very limited selection of people when I go looking for items to feature, so it was really cool to see and shows that plaid has been brought back by the popular demands of the masses - it really does have something for everyone.
