It’s that time of year again. It’s back to school time! Aside from shopping for school supplies your kids are probably more concerned about what they will wear back to school. Well in case you are out of the loop in that department, we here at Plaid are here to help. Below we have listed the top back to school trends.

Trend alert! Union Jack is currently one of the hottest trends on the scene right now. The Union Flag, commonly known as the Union Jack, is the flag of the United Kingdom. Unless you have been living under rock it shouldn’t be hard to figure out why this pattern is in high demand at the moment. The 2012 Summer Olympics are currently taking place in London. Once the games began the Union Jack pattern has been popping up on all sorts of items, and thanks to Pinterest it is not hard at all to find some great inspiration. If you would like to get in on this trend, and show your spirit for these Olympic games consider giving some of your home decor a little British makeover. Take a look at the pictures below to get some inspiration on a new home decor craft project to start.
