I was contacted by AffordableScarves.com recently with an opportunity to not only try one of their scarves, but offer a giveaway to all of you as well. I jumped right on this, of course. AffordableScarves.com is an online seller of many different types of scarves. You’ll find cashmere scarves, pashminas, silk scarves, wraps, and scarves for every season. In short, AffordableScarves.com is a scarf superstore!
I spent awhile going through the site and contemplated a few scarves, including these lovelies:
From left to right we have the Soho Ombre Scarf in Purple ($19.95), the Bohemian Celebrity Scarf in Black ($14.95), and the NYC Crinkle Scarf in Cream ($9.95).
Ultimately, I decided to get a scarf that I would never buy myself in “real life.” It was easy to decide, then, to get a circle scarf. Circle scarves are so popular this season and have completely confounded me. Wrap a big circle of material around your neck?? Why??
I requested this Jessica Circle Scarf ($17.95) in teal blue:
This scarf is different from things I would normally wear for two reasons – it’s teal blue and it’s a circle scarf. (If I haven’t mentioned it this week, I wear a lot of black. And white.)
I was pleasantly surprised the first time I wore the scarf. I had a mini fashion show in my living room and fell in love with the teal circle. Unlike “normal” scarves, I could really adjust this scarf in so many different ways (and part of my skepticism was that I didn’t think this was going to be possible). I could wear it in different lengths. I could even wrap part of it over my head as a makeshift hat. I LOVE it. I also love the color because it goes with pretty much everything in my wardrobe. I love the scarf so much that I packed it for my trip to Los Angeles last weekend and wore it everywhere. It’s just as wonderful in cold climates (Chicago) as it is in sunny southern California. This scarf is my new best friend and I am now a huge proponent of the previously confounding circle scarf. (This is big for me!)
Because AffordableScarves.com is amazing, they’ve offered to host a giveaway for all of you wonderful readers!!! Two people are going to have the opportunity to win a $25 gift certificate to AffordableScarves.com or the scarf of their choice.
