40 X 365: 5. Flannel!

5. Flannel!

In the ‘90’s flannel was the material to wear, regardless of the fact that it was rarely flattering and often tied around our waists. We were grunge and didn’t give a fuck. In ’08 my flannel and I still don’t.

Flannel and plaid are back, actually... Albeit, in slightly more tailored and fitted fashions, but they're back. How does it feel to be on the cutting edge??

Who are the chicks in the picture? You aren't one of them, it would seem. Is that just the stock photo that comes up when you google "flannel fashion"?

In some way, each of those chicks is me. And in fact, that is the stock photo that comes up after typing in several mid-90's gen X words. Also for your information, "Flannel around the waist" isn't one of them and yields surprisingly unfruitful results.

Did Girbaud's make it to Elgin? Because the "stock photo" of me in 7th and 8th grade was flannel shirt tucked in to Girbaud jeans.
