This Cozy, Faux-Fur Piece Looks Expensive… But It’s Not

December 2nd // 1 Comment

Scarves are everyone’s winter catch-all, right? You can pair one with pretty much anything and it will still look good with or without a coat. But what about glamming it up a bit? This faux-fur Wintertide Scarf from Anthropologie is perfect for the job because it looks super-expensive and has that timeless, vintage appeal.

And it’s only $58.

Wardrobe Essential – the Gauzy, Summer Scarf

May 6th // 6 Comments

It’s the trend that makes any woman look cooler. In the quest to give well-worn summer staples a fresh look, a thin cotton scarf works far, far better than you’d imagine.

Go for ones in a delicate hue or with a metallic sheen – or join the New York/L.A. crowd and go for leopard-print. Here’s one of my favorites:

Your turn: Do you prefer a classic, knotted-at-the-throat short scarf or a long, flowing, bohemian effect?

Gorgeous (and super-affordable) Spring Scarves from Echo

February 25th // 2 Comments

My love affair with scarves shows no signs of cooling off as the weather warms up – especially now that I’ve seen the Echo scarves at Macy’s! The one below is my absolute favorite… I can see myself relaxing on Utopia III with JR and Amber, all while wearing this scarf! It is the perfect complement to a t-shirt, fitted jacket or casual dress.

Will you switch to spring scarves when the seasons change?

Could it be the (drumroll!) elephant-bell thigh-high leggings at Alexander Wang (like leg warmers… but not)?

Or the lariat-and-scarf combos at Rag & Bone?

I’m voting for the boots, which could work with tights and a skirt, a dress, skinny pants, jeans, leggings… basically, everything in my closet. Or, and be honest!, am I playing it too safe?

Instant Obsession: Sabina Les Silk Scarves

January 21st // Comment Here

Sabina Les’ new line of boldly printed silk scarves is proof that when one door closes, another opens. After being laid off last year because of the economic downturn, the New York-based designer finally took the necessary steps to launch the collection she’d been visualizing for years… and the results are pretty impressive. The prints are so wildly unique that I almost want to frame them—or turn them into wallpaper—rather than wear them.
