I've been on the lookout for a nice plaid shirt for awhile, but it's hard to find one that doesn't make me look like a man, a lumberjack, a preppy boater, a cowgirl, or grungy. Which is difficult, since those are all genres from which plaid takes its inspiration from. I wouldn't mind looking a bit Scottish though.
It also turns out that it's rather difficult finding a feminine-appealing plaid shirt in the men's section of the thrift store... so I haven't had any success thus far.
This season I've found two that come pretty close (from LOFT and YesStyle), but I don't have a chance to see their true colors in person and am not sure if I should take the risk and buy them online.

This top is a lovely plum color and the Peter Pan-like collar and henley buttons tone down the masculinity.
This top incorporates the wrap/drape style that I've been interested in trying for quite some time now. The plaid itself is more of a window-pane pattern, which isn't as harsh on the eyes either.
