Exciting News and a #ThrowbackThursday Contribution

Those of you who have been around a while know that I love tartan, and that I often look for ways to add tartan into my historical wardrobe. In order to produce historically accurate plaid clothes, I've also ended up doing a lot of research on how tartan (and other plaids) play into fashion trends throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries. I love reading and writing about tartan, and I love sharing it with you!

I'm excited to say that now I'm getting to share all of this crazy plaid love with a whole new audience over at Jezebel/Pictorial! The article itself pulls from some of the posts I've written here, but is updated to reflect the amount I've learned since I started posting about tartan almost two years ago.

Plus, how cool is the illustration the Pictorial team came up with? I love it!

You can check out the article on Pictorial here.

You know I love tartan, but what about you? I'd love to see/hear about your favorite tartans, plaid outfits, or other historical inspirations!
