I will check out H&amp;M.<br />Alexandra: Thanks for getting back to me. I think I will order the scarf from Land's End. That way I'll be able to afford a Scottish scarf when I'm there.<br />zolechic: Burberry on sale is probably more than I want to spend, but it is the ideal!!<br />gradfashionista: The White and Warren travel wraps look fabulous. I'll have to think about it because they are pricey.<br />kkards: They are beautiful - I really like the print but the website says they are out of stock. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-the-perfect-scarf#post-1762443 Thu, 22 Dec 2016 18:12:34 +0000 kkards 1762443@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>&nbsp;I haven't seen either of these IRL, but they are both on my radar as possible adds. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-the-perfect-scarf#post-1762424 Thu, 22 Dec 2016 17:21:35 +0000 gradfashionista 1762424@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A few years ago, I bought the 100% cashmere "<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.whiteandwarren.com/cashmere-travel-wrap-117">Travel Wrap</a>" from White and Warren. Even on sale, it was really expensive for me, but I've worn it through several winters, and take it with me whenever I travel. It's super soft, and functions well as a wrap in cooler settings, and as pillow in airplanes and buses. It's been through the washer and dryer and hasn't pilled. When it rains, I just throw a layer on top of my head, and it keeps me dry.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-the-perfect-scarf#post-1762378 Thu, 22 Dec 2016 13:53:31 +0000 Anonymous 1762378@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perhaps you could snag a post holiday sale on a Burberry, or at least we can all dream of that! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-the-perfect-scarf#post-1762375 Thu, 22 Dec 2016 13:38:43 +0000 Alexandra 1762375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bonnie, I have one from years ago that I absolutely love. It's warm, soft, and bright red. The ones I've looked at in the store this year feel the same kind of soft and I'd expect the same performance from them. I actually had two in my hand to buy a few weeks ago but then decided that I needed a new jacket more than a new scarf. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-the-perfect-scarf#post-1762287 Thu, 22 Dec 2016 01:41:33 +0000 Maneera 1762287@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know most ppl don't like shopping at H&amp;M because their quality is poor, but I am kind of hard on my scarves so I bought 4 from H&amp;M this season. I have no doubt they will have plenty holes by end of the season! </p> <p>They have some lovely blanket scarves that are worth checking out. I got a black one that looks amazingly cosy for traveling. I also got this one with a herringbone pattern. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-the-perfect-scarf#post-1762281 Thu, 22 Dec 2016 01:18:19 +0000 Bonnie 1762281@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>El Cee: I've been noticing that, too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-the-perfect-scarf#post-1762279 Thu, 22 Dec 2016 01:14:22 +0000 El Cee 1762279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Why do the guys get all the good stuff? ;-)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-the-perfect-scarf#post-1762278 Thu, 22 Dec 2016 01:13:21 +0000 Bonnie 1762278@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>JAileen: I didn't even think of thrift stores. Good idea. I'm on a trip right now, but I will check them out when I get back home.<br />La Pedestrienne: Thank you. I didn't even think about Sierra Trading Post. I will check them out. I do plan to buy one when I'm there, but we're going to England first, and I'll probably want one for the plane over there, too.<br />El Cee: Thank you. We found some of the same scarves. The men's department does have some great scarves. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-the-perfect-scarf#post-1762274 Thu, 22 Dec 2016 01:05:13 +0000 Bonnie 1762274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Alexandra: The first scarf pictured above is a Cashtouch from Land's End. It looks good in the photo, but it's so reasonable, on sale for $14.99, that I wondered if it would be warm and soft. Have you seen or tried them?&nbsp;<br />Tisha: The flowered scarf is really pretty. I was thinking of a plaid but as you and Joy said, I could buy that in Scotland. That way, I'd have two very different looks.&nbsp;</p> <p>I followed Joy's suggestion and looked at men's scarves. Men have a lot more plaid and use the color brown more often. Here are some I found that I also like. I'm trying to find a scarf in a burgundy, black, brown, and white print or plaid.<br />&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-the-perfect-scarf#post-1762273 Thu, 22 Dec 2016 01:03:27 +0000 El Cee 1762273@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like a fabulous trip ahead for you. I like Joy's idea of planning to look for the perfect scarf while in Scotland, but bringing a suitable, less expensive one along with you.&nbsp;Here are some Burberry type scarves (some cashmere, some acrylic "cashmink" with cashmere feel) -- a few are from the men's department, but are unisex in look.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-the-perfect-scarf#post-1762270 Thu, 22 Dec 2016 00:56:27 +0000 LaPed 1762270@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have you checked Sierra Trading Post? They often have cashmere blend scarves, etc. at reasonable prices. Sometimes they stock Johnston's of Elgin -- a famous Scottish luxury brand ( I think that's what Astrid purchased when she visited Scotland?). I do like the idea of waiting and buying one once you're there -- then it doubles as a souvenir. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-the-perfect-scarf#post-1762267 Thu, 22 Dec 2016 00:52:12 +0000 JAileen 1762267@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've bought most of my scarves at thrift stores. Do you have any thrift stores in your area? I've found several cashmere scarves for about $5 each. The labels indicate they're from Scotland!</p> <p>There's a Burberry scarf that would look great with my Pendleton coat, but it's over $400, so I'm passing on it, I'm afraid. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-the-perfect-scarf#post-1762266 Thu, 22 Dec 2016 00:51:52 +0000 Tisa 1762266@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the vibrant one with flowers. If your post about cardigans and pullovers is any indication, you look great in colourful clothing so this scarf should look good on you.</p> <p>Other scarfs are nice as well, but as Joy said - you could look for scarfs of that type in Scotland. I imagine it's the best place in the world to look for plaid. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-the-perfect-scarf#post-1762265 Thu, 22 Dec 2016 00:49:24 +0000 Alexandra 1762265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How about the Cashtouch scarves from Lands' End? They're quite soft and inexpensive. Mostly acrylic. And they come in a bunch of different plaid coloways.

I will check out the Cashmiracle scarves and I didn't even think to look at men's scarves. Buying a scarf in Scotland is also a good idea but I want to make sure I have something to wear when I first get there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-the-perfect-scarf#post-1762261 Thu, 22 Dec 2016 00:11:52 +0000 Anonymous 1762261@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Buy one there. I think Astrid bought a lovely scarf in Scotland. Of the ones pictured, I like the first and last the best, from what I can tell from the photos. I have seem cashmere-like scarves in Burberry plaids many places for a fraction of the price. They are made in Germany and are called Cashmink or something like that. Don't forget to look at men's scarves. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-the-perfect-scarf#post-1762251 Wed, 21 Dec 2016 23:41:29 +0000 Bonnie 1762251@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm putting together a travel wardrobe for a trip to Scotland in April. I want to be prepared for all types of weather and have purchased a vest, a fleece cardigan, a black raincoat, and waterproof low hikers which are shown below. My hat and gloves will be black. I will be limited to carryon for three weeks and am trying to pack minimally. My problem is finding a scarf that goes with my outerwear. I don't like itchy fabrics or infinity scarves and prefer a long, rectangle style. The Burberry scarf that Angie posted is my ideal but I don't want to pay that much. Under $100 would be fine. I've shopped online and found several scarves that may work but none of them seems ideal. Any suggestions would be welcome. (Also shown below is several possible scarves.)&nbsp; </p>
