I love tartan, especially in fall and winter. I have several tartan shirts, scarves and one winter coat in my wardrobe but it’s still not enough.

What’s the difference between tartan and plaid? In short, plaid is a garment and tartan is a pattern.

Plaid refers to the piece of clothing, no matter what the pattern of the fabric is, while tartan refers to the pattern itself. Most plaids are of a tartan pattern, which is why all the confusion!

A must-have for fall/winter is the tartan scarf. My obsession right now is the blanket, oversized tartan scarf that can be worn as a poncho or sweater as well. Two toned/double sided, even better.

Here are some fabulous picks for tartan scarves this season.
