I had a mean crush on this tartan lampshade that Williams-Sonoma Home carried this fall (no longer available, sorry.) I've kept my eye out for other ways to bring a little prepster plaid in my day. Because a classic plaid never goes out of style.
{1} Personalize your Macbook (iamhuman makes ones for PCs too) with a laptop cover. {2} Customize anything from a clipboard to a party bucket with decoupage plaid designs by the Macbeth Collection. {3} Plum Party calls the pattern, "winter plaid", but I'd use paper plates and napkins in this red + pale blue print for parties year-round. {4} Paper boxes covered in plaid pattern — perfect storage solution for small bits + office supplies.{5} Buffalo plaid flannel sheets by L.L. Bean: what could be more cozy. {6} Monogrammed notecards by Jack + Lulu in a subtle plaid. {7} This fringed plaid scarf makes a great, affordable gift for a girlfriend.
