Fall is finally here and I am so excited to wear (and to shop for) all the nice fall clothing. Jackets and coats are great for the season but you need to own a blanket scarf if you have never had one before. You can do a lot with a blanket scarf since it is so versatile. You can wear them as scarves or capes; you can do any styles as you wish. They are light but yet they can keep you warm. I get lots of compliments when I have mine on. Blanket scarves are perfect for shopping days especially when I don’t have my fiancés with me so I have no one to help me carry my jacket or coat. Believe me it’s never fun shopping with only one hand. With blanket scarves, I can either leave them on as a cape or put them in my purse.

There are so many blanket scarves out there in different prints and shades. It is never easy to pick one. Choosing the colour or print is personal preference, but keep in mind you need to think about what you are going to pair the blanket scarf with. If you are going for one with prints, you want to pair with a solid colour top to get a clean look. Also think about what colour works better on your skin tone because you want the scarf to enhance your look and outfit. Wearing the right blanket scarf will give you a “pop” and not turn you into an eyesore.

Trust me you never have enough blanket scarves (My fiancés may not agree with me on this). If you don’t have one in your closet, you need to go and get one now! I promise that you will fall in love with your new scarf.
