Flannels. We, as college students, know of these magical half-jacket half-sweater marvels. But do we take them for granted? Yes. When I walk across campus, I see maybe 20 people in flannels. This is not enough. Flannels are the key to any college student’s wardrobes, trust me. They can upgrade any grunge outfit from blah to WOW! Don’t let the lumberjacks have all the fun. Here are 5 reasons to wear a flannel this fall season.

I first learned about flannels when I was a little kid. My grandparents had a deep green flannel blanket at their house. I used to love to wrap myself in this blanket of wonder and pretend that the rest of the world was as soft as that flannel blanket. Alas. Only the flannel could bring me such comfort.

Next, I was introduced to flannel PAJAMAS. Let. Me. Tell. You. These puppies changed my life. Picture the flannel blanket, but all over your body, all the time. Yeah. I know.

Now, flannels aren’t just for being cozy. They are also a fashionable statement (a cozy fashionable statement). Beyonce wears flannels. Need I say more than…flawless?
