Even in the summer, I always a shawl because I can't stand AC and I'm always cold unless it's like 90 °F. I could open a scarf shop with all of the scarves in my wardrobe.<br /><br />I can't believe I'm saying this, but the snow has been the least of the winter woes in the city this year. The wind chill and negative digits is the worst. For winter, I've been relying on cashmere and vicuna shawls of various weights (I can't do lambswool or merino due to allergies). My favorites at the moment have been a few Christian Lemaire stoles I picked up at The Line's Apartment and my Hermes cashmere and silk GM shawls.

I definitely rotate through some favorites though, and in the winter (this year at least) it's my Acne Canada (finally got one!) and a super thick and luxurious cable-knit infinity scarf my mother knit for me from baby alpaca. Yeah, it's as amazing as it sounds, I am a lucky gal. Come spring though, I tend to go through way more variety...Nomadic D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06303665587576888183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-59192929659894571612014-02-07T18:03:22.244-05:002014-02-07T18:03:22.244-05:00I think one of the reasons I don't like summer...I think one of the reasons I don't like summer is because I can't wear a scarf!

I would also suggest always wearing a deep hood to trap extra heat around your cheeks and nose. I wear glasses, and the condensation makes it impossible to walk to work, so I have to keep the scarf away from my nose and mouth.<br /><br />Thanks for the light shawl recs, I need something lighter than my virginia johnson, but not too delicate that it will snag easily.ericahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11414537639917539473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-15588079068017101352014-02-07T01:11:31.571-05:002014-02-07T01:11:31.571-05:00Thank you for this.

For the coldest weather, I double scarf up which is wearing my usual silk 90cm square plus the cashmere wrapped twice around on top. I've never been a large scarf or shawl wearer for the warmer months and it's something I'd love to explore given the flexibility and versatility options.<br />Hope this big freeze passes for you soon!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889754957463731831.post-55359015920621137082014-02-05T23:41:16.551-05:002014-02-05T23:41:16.551-05:00I've been working this year in a minimally-hea...I've been working this year in a minimally-heated classroom, and wearing one of my Hermes cashmere GM shawls or Chan Luu cashmere shawls every day.
