There are scarves, and then there are blanket scarves. So what’s the difference? Blanket scarves are a larger version of your every-day scarves.
My every-day scarf is long and narrow, and I can drape it around my shoulders. My blanket scarf is a large square that I can fold and twist and wear it a variety of ways.
Take some blanket scarf styling cues from Cosmopolitan and try wearing your blanket scarf a new way.
Ella Pretty Blog also styles her blanket scarf with jeans and fabulous accessories.

I love all this! Too bad I live in south Florida. I have to wait…months:(
Jessica,
You can always wear scarves, even in south Florida. Wear them as a shawl around your shoulders over a maxi dress, during the winter months. I may not get as cold there as it does here in east Tennessee, but scarves are the perfect accessory.
Thanks for stopping by my blog, and for commenting!
Have a wonderful day!
