MONOGRAM CASHMERE-BLEND BLANKET SCARF

I had been eyeing this shawl/scarf for couple season - but was hesitant to buy one.

 

I am a careful shopper. I really hate buying something and growing to hate a certain item because it turned out it doesn't look good on me/ the fit was wrong etc.

I especially hate it when something stays in my closet untouched - it gives me doubts about my judgement! (which is funny but you know what I mean right?).

 

Also, I am a 160cm Asian girl (relatively on the short side even for an Asian women)- i wondered how would this scarf drape on me - all I have are model pics of very tall (possibly Scandanavian looking) women!

 

Toteme wasn't readily available in Seoul when I bought it, so i didnt have a chance to try it on either.

 

Upon unsuccessful searches online(looking for real women photos etc, hope Unvarnished Clothing existed then) & mounting frustration that I was pondering over a scarf so much - I just bought on a whim. called the store and ordered it in fact! :)

 

Thankfully, despite my worries - this scarf turned out to be an absolute favorite! :)

 

The best thing about it is that it is so very versatile. It works as a shawl, it works as a scarf - depending on how you style it (refer to pics below).

 

The next best thing about it is that is VERY WARM. It is a good mix of Cashmere/Wool - take it with you anywhere (especially when you are traveling) and you will be able to stay toasty.

 

Lastly, I dont know what it is about this scarf. I own a lot of scarf/shawls - but there is something about this one that makes me rather 'stylish'. Stylish is a terrible word, I really hate the nuance of this word but that's what it does! :)

 

So go on, readers - treat yourself a nice TOTEME scarf if you need to stay stylishly toasty :)
