Yay or Nay? PLAID.

Now that it's Fall (and October 1!), plaid is everywhere. You can find plaid on throws, shirts, skirts, vests, bedding, chairs, and even plates. I love this, this, and this, but, no matter how hard I try, I can't seem to understand the love for this, this, or any of this. I guess it's the traditional Scottish plaids I dislike (Sorry, Charles, and sorry, Scotland, you did not gain your independence from the U.K. I was rooting for you.). Scottish plaids always seem so dated to me. On the other hand, plaid shirts with a little added neon color or with a large print, I can do; and I love a soft, cozy plaid shirt on a cool night while camping. I just don't think you will ever find me wearing a plaid scarf or a plaid pair of pants... Here are some plaids I came across that I can kind of tolerate, although they're still a stretch for me.

How about you? Yay or nay to plaid? Do you love it or hate it, or are you somewhere in the middle like me?
