Budget talked all about her love of belts last month, well I guess i should divulge my obsession.... scarves!!
My obsession, like Budget’s, has been happening for years. I think mine dates back to my arrival in Massachusetts over 10 years ago! Which most definitely makes sense, seeing as it’s freaking cold up there in the winter. However, the scarves I love and have really don’t do much to keep me warm on those frigid days.
It started as a great way to add some color to my black pea coats that were all the rage back then, and only propelled itself further when Pashminas skyrocketed onto the scene as the “it” accessory. However I could not afford a real Pashmina, so would seek out the “fake” Pashminas from where ever I could find them! I have Scarves in all different colors, Black, White, Pink, Green, Blue, Purple, Red... and my newest favorite, Polka Dots!
The best part is you can find a scarf for a minimal amount, and it can transform your outfit into something new. They really are a great add to any outfit with that pop of color you may be looking for.
So where do I keep all these scarves... Well for a while they were thrown all over my room and living spaces, but now, I try to be mindful of them, fold them up when not in use and store them in my closet in a plastic bag. However, the bag is getting pretty full, and I need to start looking for another location to house my growing collection.
Oh and now that my love of knitting is back in full effect... I'm able to add to this obsession, by making them myself!! I am especially proud of my grey cable-knit pom pom scarf!
After going through the colors I have, I realize I’m lacking a yellow and an orange Scarf.... Guess that means I’m off to find some! ;)
