The time has come again for seasonal attire for the many festivities that will take place  From ugly sweater contests to office Christmas party but what does one wear during the holiday season in between the festivities?  Many opt for the traditional red and green to don their holiday to cheer but for those who want to embrace the Christmas and fashion Tartan plaids can carry both the spirit and style.

Tartan (often called plaid) is a traditional Scotish print made of cris-crossed vertical and horizontal lines of various colours and widths. With the holiday season in full swing, tartan has become a traditional uniform of the season. As the print becomes a staple in the holiday wardrobe for many, the print is expressed in scarves, blouses, pants, shoes blazers and many accessories. The key to wearing tartan successfully is picking one piece and make it the focal point of your ensemble then complimenting your look with a shoe or accessory in the same print. Tartans in creams, reds and greens capture the holiday spirit. Styled with classic pieces and accessories, you will be the prepared for all of the fiestas of the season.  Below you will see some of my tartan pieces.
