This is the scarf that started it all.  Well, not exactly this one, but one very similar.  The one I fell in love with was sold out.  So, I happened upon this one (somehow I cannot get the link to work — search Oversized Square Scarf In Check at ASOS.com) and it is truly a blanket scarf.  It is so big I half wonder if it isn’t actually a blanket and they decided to jump on the Blanket Scarf bandwagon and market it as a scarf.  Worn with my cargo skinnies (seen here with the boots and here), snow boots (not particularly fashionable, but necessary) and a basic crewneck navy sweatshirt I bought in menswear, half tucked.  So cozy, I didn’t feel the need for a coat on this day.
