I don’t know about you, but as the weather drops, all I want to do is stay under my duvet in good company. That comforting feeling of being under the blankets, cozied up is maybe the best feeling in the world. Unfortunately, we can’t all live this way. Whether commuting to and from work, heading out to meet a friend or doing what we do best, shopping, I like to blanket myself in layers. My go to are blanket scarves and outerwear. This outer layer works with every outfit and is the hottest trend this season that will keep you extremely cozy through the extreme weather. We owe it all to Burberry.
There are multiple ways to wear the oversized scarf. The nice thing, is that the blanket scarf is so versatile. Here are a few ways that I like to wear mine. I find it key to start by folding the oversized scarf into a triangle as they generally come in a huge square.

The Shawl… Keep a blanket scarf on your chair at work. I constantly use an oversized scarf to bundle myself in the office. Start off with the scarf folded in a triangle and drape it over your shoulders with the top of the triangle in the back.

The Boa Constrictor… If you have short hair like me, you need to keep your neck warm through the winter. Drape the scarf around your neck leaving the long ends down. Take one end and cross it over the other. Keep wrapping it around your neck until you reach the end. Do the same to the otherside and tuck the ends in.

The Neck Warmer… If ‘The Boa Constrictor’ gets too hot, which it can while you are walking, unwrap the scarf so the ends are hanging down on either side. It makes a world of difference while creating a nice oversized collar and still keeps your neck warm.
