  11. I think scarves really add something to an outfit!

    ReplyDelete
  12. Ooh I like the snuggly looking grey one! Perfect for a cashmere moment on a winters day, indoors by the fire! (Why I am thinking that when the sun is shining outside I do not know!) Perhaps its because I walked past a shop this morning that had a pre-fall collection on display?

    ReplyDelete
  13. wow fabulous scraf! i am dreaming to have all of all!!!

    ReplyDelete
  14. I absolutely adore scarves, only recently started incorporating them into my daily outfits and now I wonder why I didn't do it sooner. So many great ones are affordable so it's easy to add some pop to an otherwise 'blah' outfit.

    Fabulous giveaway, CC! Hope you're having a great week thus far. Thank you for the comment on my hair. xx

    XOXO!

  38. All of the scarves look so colorful and gorgeous! Thank you for doing the giveaway!

    ReplyDelete
  39. I once read that all-season scarves were gaining in popularity partly because of climate change, which is creating milder winters and colder summers. When summer weather is hot one day and positively autumnal the next, a scarf is definitely a nice accessory to have!

    ReplyDelete
  40. I love scarves, I can't live without them!

    ReplyDelete

  45. Carrie - I love how you compiled all these great scarves! And I'm so tired of hearing how some people think wearing scarves in warm weather is weird. Scarves are great year 'round. So I think it's great you show how versatile a scarf is. Thank you! :) Great site too!

  59. Scarves for me are so important, like light cardigans during the summer and you can play with your look. Adorable pieces!

    ReplyDelete
  60. I've got some kind of as-yet-unstudied form of dyslexia that prevents me from properly tying a scarf. I always end up standing in front of the mirror for like 10 minutes trying to figure it out, worrying that I'm going to somehow accidentally strangle myself, and posthumously become the subject of a rumor that I accidentally killed myself during "erotic asphyxiation," like Michael Hutchence or David Carradine.


    These are all pretty scarves though.

    ReplyDelete
  61. this is one item I am still learning how to work with. It looks fine on others but on me..it just feels like I'm on a suicide quest. Lol i'm learning tho.
