Plus Size Plaid for Fall 2011
A top trend in both women’s and men’s fashion this season is plaid.

Wear over a comfortable pair of distressed dark denims and high top sneakers and you will be turning heads in no time.

Big and Tall Graphic Tees for College
Another popular trend in back to school fashions for men this season is graphic tee shirts. Whether you are a Big Bang Theory fan sporting a Bazinga tee shirt or you want to rock out a Kiss tee shirt to impress the ladies, the options are as varied as the fine young ladies on the cheerleading squad. Graphic plus size tee shirts are available in sizes up to an 8XL. Worn with a solid colored denim shirt over top, this look will have you feeling confident yet looking classically casual. Colored denim shirts are available up to a size 10XL in colors like tan, olive, russet, and of course the classic sandwashed blue. Add a pair of comfortable twill cargo pants to complete the look and you can easily go from the classroom to the local pub after class for an evening of socializing.
