Scarves that go with everything

That Is My Neck

I didn't feel bad about my neck until I saw this photo (now carefully cropped to remove the full-on Tortoise Effect). Just as well this post is about scarves, then. Navy and khaki are two of the chicest grown-up colours, and so I was delighted to find this vintage men's scarf at Leftovers in Brixton Market. It goes with everything. Well, everything I wear. A lot. Like denim, old military jackets and my lovely COS coat. Being collarless, the COS coat does require some assistance at this time of year.

Here are some more go-with-everything scarves:


Evie feather print scarf, £39,  Hobbs, available HERE.



Polka dot silk Saint Laurent scarf, £175, available HERE



Versace Baroque scarf, £155, available HERE.


Oh and I'll be moving over to Wordpress soon. Just fiddling about with fonts. Stay tuned.

    Great looking scarves, Alyson. I too am starting to feel bad about my neck (props to Nora Ephron) and love a good scarf.

    I love a good scarf - and have also returned to the polar neck jumper, delaying feeling bad about my neck until the summer.

    Great scarves! I'm wearing a floral print scarf today and it brightens my mood every time I look at it. Good luck with the Wordpress migration! Can't wait to see the new format!

    Great scarf. I too wear men's scarves and love them. I too have been known to crop out my neck:).

    I love that vintage scarf Alyson. WRT necks etc... I am frequently amazed at what "crops" up in photos...stuff that I hadn't noticed before....necks factoring greatly into this experience!

    Love the silk scarves. I am in a shibori class in Los Angeles. Weekly we choose colors, textures and design silk scarves (or other items) to dye. Lots of possibilities here for advanced style neck decoration.

    I have to say my favourites at this time are the infinity scarves. They are so easy to wear. Although, I do have a big collection of others. With winter in Canada, scarves are a must. Collarless coats scream for a scarf or turtleneck, don't you think?
    I now wish I had paid more attention to my neck. I've encouraged my daughters to treat their's the same as their face.

    Love the scarves...always my go-to accessory. But your neck revelation is why I never ever am photographed anymore. I like the picture of me in my head better!

    I started a blog recently and what a coincidence. I wrote about my very own turkey neck the other day:http://atypical60.com/2015/01/20/turkey-necks-and-parking-lot-signs/
