To be clear, when we talk about a 'neutral' scarf we don't mean plain or boring. It simply refers to a color palette that goes with virtually anything. It can range from black, white, cream, brown, grey, beige, charcoal... you get the idea. By this definition you will notice that animal print is considered a neutral - and there's nothing boring about leopard-print! While you could choose a single block of color, surprisingly, it can be much simpler (and smarter) to put together an outfit with a scarf that contains a multitude of neutral hues. One word on color selection: to decide whether you should stick to a neutral warm color palette or a cool color palette look to your other accessories. If you wear more gold-tone accessories then you may prefer a warm-hued scarf, while an abundance of silver in your closet might mean you feel more comfortable with a cool palette.

These little points of difference, depending on the fabrication can be whimsical or lend a richness to the garment. Let your own personal style dictate which look works best for you. Perhaps you like the earthy feel of embroidered flowers or maybe crystal embellishments are just right for your daring aesthetic- the possibilities are endless.

This scarf looks great dressed up or dressed down. It can be draped over the shoulders when paired with an evening dress and strategically bundled around the neck to keep you warm during the coldest of winters. They come in different weights, but a lightweight wool pashmina is an excellent year-round choice.
