Cozying Up to Plaid

I can't say that I have a scintilla of plaid in my apartment (unless you count my J Crew tartan wool pants!), but seeing these pictures are making me long for something plaid to cozy up to. Doesn't it seem so naturally inviting and warm? I tend to be a little closed-minded when it comes to plaid and associate it with a little boy's room or a rustic cabin, but the pictures below show us that there are many many different types of plaid up  your consideration.
