I loved when flannel was in and was very excited to find out it was back this fall! Some fashion trends make me feel like if I wear it, I’m trying to be twenty again. The flannel fall fashion trend can be worn by any age, so yay for us in our forties. Many people who wore flannel shirts made it look frumpy but you can add flannel to your wardrobe with ease. I recently bought my first flannel shirt of the season, actually I bought two and here are the many ways you can dress it up or down while looking cute.
The Casual Flannel Look
Going out for the day shopping? Doing daily chores or meeting a friend for lunch and want to keep warm without a bulky sweater? Grab your flannel shirt, favorite jeans, and your flat boots. You are now ready for a casual day staying comfortable, warm, and cute.
The Dressed Up Flannel Look
Perfect for going out to dinner or for drinks with the hubby or friends. After your day of shopping, touch up your hair and makeup. Switch out your jeans for a skirt, and grab a boot with a heel. The skirt here I happened to have but I will tell you that my bestie bought a mini quilted skirt for her flannel and it looked killer. Did I mention we shopped together and even bought the same shirt so we can be twinsies. Ok we won’t try to wear it at the same time but we both had to have it!
Cozy Up Flannel
After dinner with hubby and friends, take it all off except your flannel shirt. We are not talking romance. There is nothing better on a fall night then curling up on the couch with a cup of tea in your flannel shirt to catch up on Scorpion or Blindspot. This is one shirt you will get your monies worth
The Flannel Dress
I haven’t bought one yet but I am on the lookout for this adorable dress that you can dress up or down.
Will you be getting flannel this fall or do you still have flannel in your closet?

I haven’t wore flannel in forever…but it is tough to pull it off in Florida I suppose.

You rock all versions, loved the idea of pairing with a skirt too 🙂 I used to love wearing flannel up North, but gave all my pieces away when I moved to FL last year.
