Fashion Friday 3/11/16 - Houndstooth Heaven

There are some classics that just never go out of style, and the houndstooth pattern is definitely one of them as well as being a go-to for me. It was created in Scotland in the 1800's and was worn as a wool outer garment by shepherds, hence the pattern also being referred to as "Shepherd's Check" or "dogstooth".  When it came into use in high fashion, it was frequently used in menswear and became associated with the upper class. Today you can find the pattern used in lots of different garments and accessories for both men and women, but it still carries that air of high class and good taste!
