Tartan Guide

Tartans are rich in history and add interest to any outfit. The holiday season is the best time of year to get out your favorite tartans. Here are four patterns to look for to add to your collection:

Screen shot 2014-12-02 at 12.13.21 PMI love red buffalo check, but black buffalo check has caught my eye recently. It’s crisp enough to wear after the holidays in the colder months without looking too much like Christmas. This tea set from C Wonder would make such a cute gift.

 

What’s your favorite tartan?
