Flannel shirts for men and women are always on the must-have list for this time of year. When you’re out shopping at Goodwill, take a look and see if you can find one for yourself! I was inspired by the way Nautica paired flannel shirts with a casual tie when I took in their show at New York Fashion Week a few years back. It’s another way to get more use out of our favorite fabric, and bring a new idea for styling. 

I paired a flannel shirt from Goodwill ($4.99) with a knit tie (.99) and a faux suede western-style blazer to do my own version of this fashion-forward look. What do you think? Try it for yourself, won’t you?
