Scarves - still useful despite the warmer weather

Monday, 2 April 2012

As Spring arrives I find that my warm woolly scarves emerge less frequently. However, a lighter weight scarf comes in handy for those chillier Spring days.

I found this lightweight wool vintage scarf from an eBay seller here who has many similar in a wide variety of paisley and other designs and colours (he also sells a good range of vintage cycling jerseys). Reasonably priced and cheerful, they're worth a look.

What they wore - London Fashion Week - Mr Porter video

Saturday, 10 March 2012

I make no apologies for showing another excellent Mr Porter video. As sources of inspiration they are invaluable. What stands out for me here are the pocket squares, brogues and scarves. In fact, I've been on the lookout for a vintage Tootal scarf.

I remember my father wearing paisley pattern cravats and scarves when I was little - and such memories influence fashion style. It's such details that can lift an otherwise unremarkable outfit.
