Scarves For Winter

I came across this girl when I was on my way to school. I couldn’t stop staring at her hair and she was so kind to let me take a photo of her for the sake of this post.

As a kind of introduction for winter and autumn (it is getting close to minus temperatures here already), I wanted to introduce everyone to a certain style on the streets of Warsaw. Let’s call it a scarf craze.

From the beginning of October, there is a sudden change in the Warsaw wardrobe.  Out come the lengths of wool, cotton and other mixes of materials, which will keep your neck warm from this day on until March. This phenomenon is not seen as often on the ladies and gentlemen of London and Paris, who prefer to have a high coat rather than attempt to wear the scarf the way the colder countries do. A sign of style is that you are suffering. Right?

Well, not here. Ever heard of the trend for practical?  This is something new, emerging, with the Chloe and trenches and beiges all around the world. Business is mixing with fashion, and it does not like to be cold.  For those still wishing for those times when it was cool to wear your skirt with trousers, say goodbye to those days. The slogan for this winter should be- ‘Practicality’.  And with it, we should ask ourselves this question- how can I make it so that the fashionably practical will come into my wardrobe…?
