One Day You're In, and the Next Day...

You're out. (In my head, this is said in Heidi Klum's voice from Project Runway).

Chevron, you're so out, and herringbone, you're oh so in.

Although these two looks are very similar, the recent chevron craze has left somewhat of a bad taste in my mouth lately. I'm love it, but I'm tired of it. See the above illustration for a more detailed view of what makes these two patterns different.

Both patterns are quintessentially European and, in my mind, just scream "apartment in Paris". However, I find the "flow" of the herringbone pattern much more visually pleasing than the sharp lines in chevron. 

I'd love to know your thoughts and opinions!

Particularly Plaid

It's a Monday. One of those Mondays. It's cold and rainy outside, and I'd really like to be at home asleep. Ugh.

Plaid is such a comforting pattern in the autumn and winter months.

I'm particularly obsessed with this new button-down I bought from J.Crew a few weeks ago. It is SO SOFT and I've been wearing it with everything. My favorite go-to look is wearing this top with black leggings and brown boots (I know.. leggings aren't pants. Whatevs). Plans are in the works to buy this top in every color offered. I love it that much.

My newest J.Crew obsession

Neutral colors with a touch of pattern

Bright at funky. J.Crew. Just what I like.

A hint of plaid through a scarf 

Country shabby - if that's your style

I'd like to be tangled up in one of these now, plzkthx

The pillows

And, of course, the most iconic plaid of all...
