My favorite accessory of the season has to be scarves, especially cashmere. I just love wrapping up with a favorite on the weekend and they certainly are a most sophisticated accessory. There are many beautiful ones that have come out this Fall season from Lanvin's high end to J. Crew's Collection wrap, both lovely.
There are also many cashmere options that can actually make your entire outfit a standout such as Burberry's Check Cashmere Scarf at Nordstroms or Diane von Furstenberg's Kenley Cashmere scarf which has stunning colors.
And, cashmere is making it on some of the best dressed in the world. Featured in
