Look Sharp, Sconnie - Midwestern Fashion Nerd, Chronic Over-thinker

Not Rad Plaid.

What do nerds wear when they suddenly become cool?
sweater: Polo,  shirt: my gpa's, pants: Cheap Monday, boots: Franco Sarto, socks: J.Crew
No idea. 

But I do know that the geek deep within sprung to life at the thought of plaid and cable knit - even if my form of nerd typically rejoices in something a little less...traditional. 
I've been hearing a lot about plaid lately, and how it's suddenly "in". 
Frankly, I'm not sure it ever went out. 
I guess plaid on the runways, in the fashion world psyche, is the only form of "in" that matters, but I'm pretty sure that goths, nerds, and my Scottish high school mascot, "Angus", had this one nailed years ago. 

So today I went back to basics, nerded it up (no, auto correct, not "needed"), and just embraced the original form of a modern day phenomenon.
 
I could have invested in a nice new pair of plaid pants, but I have a feeling that in about 2 weeks they will look just as classy as below masterpiece ensemble. 
(in her defense, this is a dance costume)

Cheers.

    That last pic is the best, I used to have to wear things like that when I danced! And I am loving your socks, they look so warm!
