Even though I’m in Florida I’m totally aware that it’s cooling down around the country, as I’m seeing a lot more layers and scarves pop up in my blog reads and Instagram feeds. One of my favorite trends so far is this plaid blanket scarf. A scarf is the perfect layering tool, as you can wear it with everything froma light-weight tee to layered with sweaters and jackets for added warmth.

I absolutely love the idea of an oversized ā€œblanketā€-type scarf in a boldĀ plaid pattern. It feels very this season, yet timeless as well, and the cozy factor is undeniable. Featured below are just a few stylish ways you can wear your scarf, at any age, plus keep scrolling for a round-up of our favorite blanket scarvesĀ {this one is in my cart!}. At more or less under $35ish, it’s a worthy addition to your closet, regardless of your geography. Wondering how to tie it up? Check out Amanda, from Advice from a Twentysomething (a favorite read), who showsĀ you how.
