Wardrobe Matters: The Scarf

Recently I finished a month in a sling: a month in which I developed a great fondness for scarves, particularly since they helped me feel comfortable and seemed to hide the "I'm injured" look in a fashionable way.

One brand that I haven't indulged in yet, but may, is Love Quotes. Although these scarves are pricey at around $80, I do like the colors available and the soft, large size. These are also especially lightweight, something I haven't necessarily found to be true for other brands.

The scarf pictured at left is Love Quotes-- see how it drapes nicely? I'd expect this scarf to be something you could wear frequently-- and comfortably.

My favorite low-cost source for scarves this year has been Old Navy. The scarves I've found there have a nicely finished edge (unlike some others, a danger in a house with three curious felines). I've worn a black one quite a bit this spring, but several nice prints, including a big floral, are now available at the Old Navy web site.
