Dr. Pepper Plaid

I have these enormous books called All American Ads that are filled with fun, interesting ads from different decades. I have all the books they make — from the 1900s to the 80s. I'm not sure if they'll ever come out with one for the 90s or 2000s, but I hope so. They're fun to see what was popular.

Anyway, the other day I was looking through them and saw this old ad for Sugar Free Dr. Pepper. I guess that was before they started calling things "diet". The plaid bathing suit caught my attention, so I thought I'd share it here. This was from the 1960s book and I remember having suits like this.

Plaid Coffee Mug

I'm always on the lookout for a plaid coffee mug when I scour the thrift store. I finally came across one the other day, but it was golf-themed, so I didn't buy it. Still cool that I finally found one though.

Gwen ...

Always beautiful ... often in red plaid. Love her.

Plaid Jars ... or not?

I saw these jars for sale at our local grocery store. I got all excited at first, only to realize it wasn't real plaid fabric. It's just a plaid paper top with a plaid label. It would look really cool if you did add real plaid fabric. Even so, being the plaid freak I am, it caught my eye and I just had to take a picture.

New Plaidness ...

It doesn't take much to make me happy, especially if it is something in the form of red plaid. I found these flats and scarf yesterday. Of course, I'd never wear them together. I always make it a habit never to mix my plaids. I only wear one plaid item at a time. Even so, I was happy to find these little treasures.

Love this!

So, who's your plaid?
