Scarf Fever!

I think I've had the Scarf Fever since eighth grade when my family and I traveled to Paris, France. I wanted to bring home tons of French things, but everything was so expensive! I did find a loophole though, scarves! They were inexpensive, all the chic French ladies were wearing them and apparently they still are! My friend has informed me that during her trip to Paris this summer scarves are the things that everyone seems to be wearing!


My scarf fever has been heating up especially since fall is around the bend! This past week has been so hot, I  can't imagine putting anything around my neck except for maybe an ice cold washcloth, but I know it will eventually cool off and it will be the season of the scarves! :)

Anywhoo here are a few of my favorite scarves that will hopefully get you in the mood for the scarf wearin' season!


This is the newest addition to my scarf collection. My grandma bought it for me in Chinatown in San Francisco. Speaking of Chinatown, if you ever visit check out the scarves! They are cheap, and if you are the type to bring home souvenirs for friends you can get 5 for $20! 


Remember how I said I went crazy with scarves in France? Well this was my favorite scarf that I found! I bought a similiar one for my friend and had to get one for myself as well. I have yet to see a scarf like this, but I love it! I had lost this scarf for a while, but my dad found it in the garage which was a very happy discovery :)


I recieved this scarf as a gift from my grandma. I love the softness and flowiness of this beautiful accessory! I wore it on the trip to San Francisco and it goes with just about everything (okay maybe not extreme colors) which was very helpful! 


This is a BIG scarf! It has a nice weave and I scored at my favorite thrift store for only $1.50! I hope to wear this a lot this winter :)

I hope I've inspired some of you to go out and wear some scarves when it gets a little windy or even just to spruce up and outfit. They do make a difference, and are very inexpensive at thrift stores. Look out for unique pieces with cool weaves and you'll be recieving compliments left and right :)

Happy Thrifting!
