silk and cashmere for cool nights

My love of shawls, wraps and stoles continues unabated - which is, of course why I chose this cashmere wrap  for today’s accessory pick:

Indie designer J’emmajo creates these one-of-a-kind cashmere wraps using “upcycled” bits of fabric from dressmaker’s scraps.  Each wrap is accented with slivers of silk, rayon and other evening dress fabrics.

chic & chunky wool scarves

Chunky wool scarves, wraps and cowls have made their way down several catwalks - and judging from the amount of frost on my front lawn this morning - it’s perfect timing to bring them out!
I love supporting indie designers, and Etsy is full of fantastic, trendy designs - check out this hand-knitted wool cowl by […]

Pucci shawls to scare off the chills

Shawls, wraps and stoles are a great way to go from warm summery-feeling days to crisper, autumn nights.

cute cover-ups for spring evenings

Okay, so it’s technically almost summer (and feels like summer for lots of us :-) but evenings can still be a little cool sometimes. I don’t always want to wear a jacket - so what’s a girl to do to keep her shoulders from getting chilly?

How about a silk stole from Banjaras?

Or this lovely […]

Cable Wrap instead of a Cardigan??

These days you might have noticed that I’m veering away from cardigans, but I still hate to be cold. Throwing one of these wraps around your shoulders, simply seem a lot more fashionable than the tried and true cardigan. What do you think? Would it work for you?

But yes, I have to admit, I do […]

Velvet Wrap = Christmas Fashion

I don’t know about you, but I hate getting all dressed up for a Christmas party and then having to wear a heavy coat. It’s just not comfortable. You go from the house to the car, take coat off, drive to restaurant, put coat back on, go in restaurant and take coat off again. It […]

The Fringed Shrug

It’s not going to keep you warm, but who cares… this is just soooo gorgeous!
