And alas, my scarves have been sitting mostly untouched in their drawer recently. Three exceptions:<br /> 1. My lightweight Pendleton scarf is my go-to for throwing in a bag and using as a makeshift blanket. Best travel companion.<br /> 2. My silk bandana is actually a handy warm-weather layer. Sun protection on my neck and a convenient hair tie in a pinch.<br /> 3. The tassels are long gone on this rust velvet scarf, but it hangs loosely and is often just right for adding a bit of color and texture to a blah outfit. It’s hard to overstate the cool factor of a skinny scarf.

I have lots of scraves and shawls but only a few hats and gloves- rather on the&nbsp; the neutral side (like Irina) but&nbsp; extended with animal/plaid prints or patterns. Also instead of Irina's blue&nbsp; accent shawl I have a grass green one-which is seldom worn-but still love it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-accessories%e2%80%a6#post-2303213 Fri, 20 Jan 2023 12:50:10 +0000 nemosmom 2303213@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Nikki! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-accessories%e2%80%a6#post-2303184 Fri, 20 Jan 2023 02:13:56 +0000 Anonymous 2303184@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like your hats, nemosmom! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-accessories%e2%80%a6#post-2303181 Fri, 20 Jan 2023 02:06:15 +0000 nemosmom 2303181@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, look at all the gorgeous accessories !</p> <p>My cold weather outerwear is dark olive, chocolate, or cognac (plus one black leather jacket that accommodates layers well!)</p> <p>I don’t carry a bag in winter, but use hats and scarves a lot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-accessories%e2%80%a6#post-2303105 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 19:02:19 +0000 Anonymous 2303105@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with Lisa- just gloves most days for me, but I just wear them til the car warms up.<br /> I have black, teal, burgundy, and camel gloves.

Bright cobalt blue, green/blue, purple/blue, grey&amp;black, and navy (as you can see I like blue!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-accessories%e2%80%a6#post-2302992 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 03:06:28 +0000 jussie 2302992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It seems like red winter scarves and hats are quite popular!<br /> Well, in winter I sometimes wear the scarf pictured with my navy puffer coat, or just with the sweaters pictured. That’s it really, no winter hats for me.<br /> In summer…… I have but one lonely sun hat! It’s a typical wide brim straw hat, deep bergundy red, no pic I’m sorry. It works well with several of my summer dresses including my beach cover up dresses, and my swimsuit which is black. If I’m out in an exercise outfit I just wear a black cap. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-accessories%e2%80%a6#post-2302987 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 02:49:23 +0000 LJP 2302987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Irina - I love your collections! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-accessories%e2%80%a6#post-2302982 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 02:33:34 +0000 cjh 2302982@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love seeing all the finds and examples. Unfortunately I am too lazy to take any photos. My accessories for winter are 1) a lot of knit hats - the ones that have a fleece lining or partial lining are my favorites because they’re coziest. It does bug me that my hair doesn’t show, like Suz. But I’ve come to appreciate being warmer in the wind. Often I’ll take a hat in the car and just wear it on the way home.<div><br /></div><div>2) several scarves of the acrylic “cashmere” variety, plaids, stripes, and kind of a fleecy furry red one. I wear them indoors, too, so they more often match my sweater rather than whatever hat I’ll choose later to go out. One is cashmere, kind of a washed red, and is the favorite workhorse. One is wool plaid, kind of a jarring bright blue, white and red, and has fringe down the sides rather than on the ends, and is a little itchy. It’s super warm, but rarely worn. I don’t ever wear silky or gauze scarves with my winter outerwear.&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div>3) gloves and mittens, at least one pair for every coat and jacket. They coordinate with the dressy level and activity use for the coat.</p> <p>4) bags - not a factor since I use the same bag for weeks or months on end. Currently a nylon fabric burgundy which is a little bigger than I like, but it works for taking a book or iPad for waiting for DH to finish pickleball, after my workout at the rec center.</p> <p>In conclusion: my accessories only match or coordinate because my preferred colors are compatible and I don’t like them to clash with my outfits or coats, and/or it doesn’t matter to me much if they don’t match. Keep me warm and neat is all I ask, I guess.</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-accessories%e2%80%a6#post-2302974 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 02:19:33 +0000 Jaime 2302974@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You guys are way too organized for me ! Very fun seeing your collections though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-accessories%e2%80%a6#post-2302970 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 02:04:57 +0000 Suz 2302970@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Bonnie,</b> yes! I find the scarf works well if I have a high-necked sweater on. Like you, I love the colours and their versatility.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Carla</b>, I got that scarf in 2018 (I think?) on sale at the Bay -- they have quite a few good scarves online there from time to time. The colours are nice because they move into spring well.&nbsp;</p> <p>Looks like <b>Bonnie</b> has a scarf full of oranges!&nbsp;</p> <p>On the subject of hats -- I know I look ridiculous in them because my hair is entirely hidden. But I also need them for warmth for that same reason! The only things I really wear are toques and cloches.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-accessories%e2%80%a6#post-2302969 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 01:56:34 +0000 Carla 2302969@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@ Suz - adore the Fraas scarf. &nbsp;I’d love to find a silk scarf with those colours and a beanie and other pieces (gloves? Bag?) in orange! &nbsp;I believe orange would work really well with the grey coat, and look smashing with the burgundy puffer. &nbsp;Hmmm. &nbsp;Might have to check out the antiques shop with the dresser drawer full of silk scarves….</p> <p>@ Bonnie - I think you have the perfect haircut/length for wearing hats, including beanies. &nbsp;To get the Instagram blogger look, I have to mash the back part down until it folds over. &nbsp;Part of wearing a hat is to wear it with confidence, and eventually you forget about it! &nbsp;I think your brimmed winter hat is fab!&nbsp; </p> <p>@ Angie - do you have a favourite? &nbsp;I’m torn between your navy/white striped and the acid yellow/green capsule. &nbsp;❤️❤️ the polka dot scarf, but don’t think I could wear that colour close to my face :-(</p> <p>@ Lisap - creating and playing with Finds is one way to have fun with fashion, without spending $$.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-accessories%e2%80%a6#post-2302965 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 01:39:14 +0000 Bonnie 2302965@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>SUZ: Wow, we are! I got the scarf as a gift from my daughter but I picked out the puffer. The scarf is a bit itchy but is so versatile and beautiful that &nbsp;I wear it often. I wear my Kuhl black fleece jacket under the Aritzia jackets on really cold days and that helps keep the scarf away from my skin. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-accessories%e2%80%a6#post-2302964 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 01:32:32 +0000 Suz 2302964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, these are beautiful. <b>Irina</b>, I love your bag and bootie collection in particular, and your scarves and hats look luxe!&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Bonnie</b>, we are scarf and jacket twins! Do you find that J. Crew scarf itchy? I do, but I love the plaid so much so I hang onto it!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-accessories%e2%80%a6#post-2302960 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 00:39:21 +0000 Bonnie 2302960@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your beanie collection and you look great in them and I'm not sure why but they look silly on me. I don't have Finds for my black wool hat and black fleece gloves but here is the rest of my winter outerwear capsule.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-accessories%e2%80%a6#post-2302959 Thu, 19 Jan 2023 00:37:25 +0000 Irina 2302959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, Carla, you collection is so coordinated! Love the berets!<br />So fun to see others as well!<br />Mine might look boring but it is what it is. Now when I have the basics, I might look for some fun additions but I’m pretty happy with what I have. All scarves and hats, one pair of gloves are cashmere.&nbsp;<div>Only one scarf is kind of bright, an old royal blue scarf from Club Monaco, my least worn scarf.&nbsp;</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-accessories%e2%80%a6#post-2302954 Wed, 18 Jan 2023 23:54:18 +0000 LJP 2302954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The only time I wear a hat is when I can’t deal with washing my hair on a weekend , lol. I also rarely wear scarves as they are a nuisance and get in the way and are too hot . I sound like a cranky old lady , which is how I feel lately ;). Not much winter accessorizing goes on for me unless I have somewhere really special to go , other wise it’s zip up the coat and put on the mitts and head out the door . I’m also impressed with the three of you and all your organized finds ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-accessories%e2%80%a6#post-2302946 Wed, 18 Jan 2023 22:58:09 +0000 Suz 2302946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your capsules, <b>Carla</b>! And <b>Angie's </b>are, of course, out of this world! . </p> <p>I confess that some of my accessories are not in Finds. And I lack a navy bag or a casual red bag (both HEWIs for me). But I do have several capsules. </p> <p>Burgundy (and cranberry). <br />Bright red. <br />Navy (and other blues). </p> <p>And a few items that cross over. </p> <p>i wear the red and burgundy capsules most casually.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm not including most of my dressier booties (just the one) -- because these are the ones I tend to wear when out and about on an ordinary day.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-accessories%e2%80%a6#post-2302940 Wed, 18 Jan 2023 22:22:28 +0000 Angie 2302940@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have an abundance of Autumn and Winter accessories - that move into Spring when Spring feels like Winter!

I always feel I have forgotten something when I go out without a hat any time of year I don’t have much in my Finds right now but adding pieces as time allows. I don’t wear these three items together </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-accessories%e2%80%a6#post-2302922 Wed, 18 Jan 2023 21:26:41 +0000 Carla 2302922@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are not all my accessories, but they are representative of what I use the most throughout the coldest months. &nbsp;I run cold, so I layer up quite a bit, and almost always wear a hat. &nbsp;(I was surprised to see how many folks were hatless today, whilst DH and I were wearing beanies). (Cold, overcast, 3degC.)</p> <p>My winter coats are: burgundy, navy, blue/black (very dark navy), and medium grey. &nbsp;I mix and match all my accessories with all my coats, though I favour the red capsule the most, followed by blue. &nbsp;</p> <p>How do you accessorize your winter coats?</p> <p>* those in the southern hemisphere - share the summer accessories - hats, sunnies, scarves, etc. you use for sun protection and/or extra style!</p>
