The Christmas season is a great time to clear out your wardrobe but which trend items of 2008 will you carry through to 2009? I asked you which on trend item was your favourite this year and you voted for the plaid shirt. Worn by the likes of Lauren Conrad and Kimberly Stewart the shirt looks great with jeans for a casual daytime look. Gladiator sandals were your second favourite trend item.

Plaid boyfriend fit shirt by 3.1 Philip Lim (£176) and Boyfriend plaid shirt by Elizabeth & James (£166).
