Blanket scarves are a versatile yet underrated item in any Fashionista’s style arsenal and a vital part of any fall or winter wardrobe. Simply rocking a blanket scarf this winter is probably the best winter fashion advice anyone could give you. They come in many different patterns as well as solids and are a great way to stay cozy on the go (after all, it’s not socially acceptable to walk around with an actual blanket draped over you like a cape).
When it comes to styling blanket scarves, there are a few options. You can either pick a neutral color and pattern that will go with many different outfits, or pick a vibrant scarf that can serve as a pop of color to a neutral colored outfit.
Additionally, blanket scarves can be worn many different ways. You can drape it over your shoulders like a shawl, you pull it around the front of you and belt it at the waist or you can even wrap it to make a faux infinity scarf (no pun intended but the options are almost infinite).
This Fashionista pairs her black and white plaid patterned scarf with a tan sweater with black stripes on the sleeve. She tops the sweater off with a black leather jacket, which gives her an edging look. This look is very versatile because it can be taken from day to night and from season to season with a few edits, such as trading out the brown, knee-high riding boots for brown or black heeled booties. You can wear this outfit to class or for an afternoon out on the town dining and shopping with friends.
