Stay Warm this Winter with Silk

Posted In: Silk for Winter Warmth

Did you know that silk is a wonderful natural insulator? I few years ago, I took a February trip to Poland. If it hadn't been for my knit silk long underwear, I would have really suffered from the cold. What's great is the softness, lack of bulk, and convenience for travel. Just tuck it in your purse or travel bag for a variety of looks, protection from the weather, and a stylish addition to any ensemble. In winter, these extra-long, extra-large 16.5mm stonewashed crepe de Chine scarves will wrap you in luxurious warmth. 14" x 60" or uber-long 14" x 72: Either way, more than your neck is covered.

This piece from September 18th does a great job of explaining why scarves are The Thing to have in your fashion wardrobe."Stylish scarves are the beginning of the outfit and the ending. They are one of the first things people see upon approaching you, yet it's the last thing you put on to finish your outfit. Any part of an ensemble that can take the credit for the beginning and the end of a worthwhile outfit deserves to make the list. Choose longer scarves with beautiful prints."

I live in the Great Northwest (Washington State) at the border of Canada and the U.S. while Mom lives in the Houston (Texas) area. So on top of being hard to buy for I always try to come up with something that is easily shipped. I hit the jackpot on Dec. 18th! This scarf was the hit of her Christmas! I have 7 brothers & sisters who all live around Mom. I've heard from all of them this year, telling me how impressed Mom is with gift!! You've made our Holidays very bright and we all thank you! I will continue to check your products from time to time as I have plenty of sisters now asking when theirs will be in the mail! Thanks again Morgan, you make beautiful scarfs and I appreciate your quick response to my requests and the prompt delivery. 5 stars to you!"
