During this time of year, we find ourselves constantly reaching for our favorite plaid flannels. The trick is how to style them with a fresh set of eyes — that's where we come in. Whether basic, like a flannel paired with our favorite skinny jeans, or expertly styled with a moody print, we've got an outfit that will please any fashion personality. Watch today's episode of Currently Trending for the inspiration. On Allison McNamara: Nieves Lavi top, A.L.C. pants.
Look of the Day: Walk in the Woods
Graceyloo took time out from her walk in the woods to snap a quick photo of her outfit. Since the weather was still nippy, she smartly borrowed her boyfriend's flannel shirt for extra warmth. A vest, denim shorties, black tights, and gray boots complete her cool hiking ensemb. Cute!
Come back and tell us what you have on!
Congrats to graceyloo!
Everyone else, submit your looks, and I might feature you on FabSugar!

Like Rebecca Bloomwood, Fab reader a1stbornunicorn has attempted to make flannel feminine. Flannelrific! Good job belting the dress, and pairing it with a khaki blazer and brown motorcycle boots. The hues in this outfit also deserve praise.

- Dress: Mossimo Supply Co.
- Blazer: Gasoline

Congrats to a1stbornunicorn!

Found! Mary-Kate Olsen's Steven Alan Flannel Ruffle Shirt
Steven Alan's Flannel Ruffle Shirt ($163) exudes a comfy and quirky vibe, hence why Mary-Kate Olsen got her hands on it and wore it while chillin' on the streets of NYC. (Natalie Portman also wore the shirt recently.) Our friends over at Rarechic are nice enough to provide a 15 percent discount on any item for FabSugar readers. Just enter Happy2008 at checkout. Side note: Doesn't MK look like Meg Ryan here? Trippy.
Trend Alert: Flannel

Ever since that genius sports jacket Kit made on episode three of Project Runway flannel has been on my mind. Then, I realized I don't own anything flannel. Oh wait! I have a pair of turquoise pajama pants with martinis on them. But seriously, this look from Carolina Herrera's Fall runway takes flannel to a high level of opulence. Actually, I'm feeling quite embarrassed about divulging my cheesy pajama pants to you right about now. Goodbye . . .
