The flannel shirt is everywhere right now. You are probably wondering how to wear this 90s trend. Here are ideas on how to style this comfy item.


The 90s are Back and I’m Into It
It is so good when a trend that you loved returns. Trend revivals that you are familiar with make it easy to get dressed. For example, you already know how you would wear it. I rocked a flannel shirt, along with everyone else, decades ago. Throwing on a plaid button up shirt over anything made it instantly “cooler”. Now it is back to make your look not just cooler but also comfy!

Shacket or Flannel Shirt?
You may be wondering what the this difference is between a flannel shirt and shacket. I know! My take on it is that a Shacket is thicker. For example, you can’t tuck in a shacket. In contrast, you can tuck in a flannel shirt. Want to see how to style a shacket? Check out these posts here and here.
Treat it Like a Jacket or Cardigan
First, the easiest way to wear this trend is to think of it as an outer layer. For example, replace your jacket or cardi with a flannel shirt! This will bring a laid back vibe to your entire look. Also, it is pretty cozy.
