Looking for cobalt blue hat & scarf

Laura

I'm trying to find a knit hat and scarf to go with my new Soia & Kyo cream-colored coat (it has black buttons). My idea was cobalt blue, but I've looked at BR (they have knit gloves and a striped scarf with cobalt, but I felt that stripes are too sporty for the coat), AT, Nordies, and JCrew and ... nothing!

Has anyone seen any cobalt blue winter accessories? With my short hair, my ears are already freezing!

It's more of a royal blue, but that might look great too:

A bright teal might work as well:

Or how about a gorgeous purple, that could look very chic.

I love stripes, so I would definitely try them, as long as you post pictures of course;-)

Not sure if you have one near you but I saw some pretty cobalt and teal blue ones at my local outlet mall at the Loft outlet. It was actually the first time I noticed this store - I've seen the Ann Taylor outlet before but this is a Loft outlet. It was at the end of a long day of outlet shopping so I didn't linger in the store but I definitely plan to go back and check out the petites section.

Thanks to Inge, I found an Echo purple hat and scarf at Macy's (the scarf has a little metallic thread running through it) and liked the color a lot with cream. Thanks for giving me the idea, Inge. And Shana I wish we had a Loft outlet near us - I've never seen that before either!

I know you already have a scarf, but maybe you need another! This cashmere one is on Lands End online.

Thanks Susan! I LOVE Lands End (I know I shouldn't be saying that on such a stylish website but I am a Wisconsin girl!). Their cashmere is fab.

Off topic, but our writing group starts tomorrow night! How is your writing coming along?

Our little group has taken on a big project. We are trying to write a women's Bible study. It is proving to be challenging, but we are learning a lot!

We went on a retreat to a beautiful spot in Southern Illinois about a month ago. The accomodations were very simple but the scenery was unbelievable. We had a great time-and even managed to do a little writing in between talking and eating! I highly recommend it!

I'd love to hear what you are planning with your group!

That retreat sounds amazing! I hope you can pull off the Bible study - that does sound challenging, and rewarding too.

We are a motley crew of writers, about 7 of us, more men than women, so that should be interesting as my writing is very female! We're there to read our work out loud and support each other - I'm hoping it's going to help us all be productive.

Let me know how it goes. It is very scary to read aloud what you have written, as I'm sure you know!
What kind of writing do you do?

I am also looking for a cobalt scarf. I want a really bright shocking cobalt. Thanks.

You're welcome Laura, glad to hear I inspired you with my 'purple suggestion'. It will look amazing with your cream coat (which I absolutely love!!). Are you smiling too each time you put on your new coat?-)

To all the writers: good luck with the projects you are working on!

Patience: I tried finding one for Laura, but didn't come up with any. I will keep it in mind though, and will let you know if anything turns up.

Have you tried Club Monaco and H&M?

(I hear you Laura! I'm wearing my scarves daily too. A giraffe neck and short hair feels the draft quickly).
