'Look, look up here...ignore the food baby'. Although in Brisbane we only get winter for one week of the year, so scarves are more about fashion than function.

I've worn them in winter to keep warm, but now that I have chest wrinkles and my neck is beginning to follow suit, I'll invest in a silk scarf or two for summer wear, loosely draped, just to hide the crepe-paper look.

If you want a great, soft scarf, check out Joanne Noragon who blogs at A Cup On The Bus. She has an etsy shop with HANDWOVEN scarves. They are soft and beautiful. I sent one to The Hurricane for Christmas since I am not worthy of such a scarf.<br /><br />Love,<br />JanieJanie Junebughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10573607241326291404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-74882821337502001.post-13712001338542592172015-01-05T14:14:15.605-08:002015-01-05T14:14:15.605-08:00Then all you'd need was the blue T-shirt with ...Then all you'd need was the blue T-shirt with the big S on it.
