Oversized plaid shirts and boyfriend-fitted tees are nothing new--and neither is being a total tomboy. However, when you mix the two in 2014, you get rad appareal from Portland-based label Wildfang.

Think perfectly tailored oversized pieces to complete any androgynous, rebellious (or just plain cool) look. Just in case you're new to the over-sized game and don't really get how a pair of pants that are two sizes too big can look really good, never fear: Taralyn Thuot, Wildfang's creative director and designer of their latest collection, The Wildfang Club, is hooking you up with not only the awesome photos from their new line's lookbook, but also a fun fact about each style.

Check out the images and see how to channel you inner Amelia Earhart below!

LOOK ONE

"It’s true. The '90s are back. For our fall collection we were inspired by preppy Tommy Hilfiger ads mashed up with the grunge-y Marc Jacobs for Perry Ellis campaign. Florals, and plaids, and stripes…oh my."

LOOK TWO

"The Harbor Tank shows the world you are wild at heart. Give it a utilitarian flair by pairing it with a plaid button-up layered under a mechanic romper. We think Amelia Earhart would be proud."

LOOK THREE

"When tomboys run wild, things are bound to get a little shredded. I love pairing our Club tee with a boyfriend thermal, some ripped-up leggings and Docs. Wrap-up the look with a luscious plaid scarf."

LOOK FOUR

"What pairs best with dark-rinsed denim and an oversized plaid? (Besides Nirvana, that is.) Messy crimped hair. You heard it here first. Dig that crimper out, folks."

LOOK FIVE

"Some of my favorite fall styling tips: pair your plaids (mixing prints is nothing new, but this season mash-up plaids head to toe), go graphic (from Tomboy to our Wildfang crest…big branding is your calling card), and let it hang out (layer flowy vests under cropped jackets and long sleeves under short)."

LOOK SIX

"While fall is all about embracing the transition to cooler weather, that shouldn’t stop you from showing a little skin. Cuff up your trousers or rock a sleeveless jacket."

LOOK SEVEN

"A wide-brimmed straw hat acts as an unexpected and fresh accessory for fall. Rock it with classics like a Tomboy tank and wool scarf."

LOOK EIGHT

"The signature pieces from the Club collection, the Harbor Crew and the Captain Crew, are mega-versatile. I love the Harbor styled bohemian Tomboy with a long floral dress worn open over railroad striped skinnies. It’s Florence Welch meets Pharrell."
