If you were a follower of my me-me-me blog you'd have seen this neckerchief feature in my last seven outfit posts. The one before that is from the day I bought it. What I'm saying, of course, is that this little silk square has become indispensable.

I don't like to wear scarves inside. Like wearing a coat inside - it just seems rude; it implies transience, which suggests disrespect to whoever I'm visiting (or the lecturer I'm learning from). At home I feel like I'm not at home, if I have a scarf of - like I'm just about to go out so I should get a move on. Makes me antsy.

But scarves were invented cos their aces in the FOIGHT against bodily chill. So it's useful, I have found, to have an indoor alternative to the heavy duty nature-proof mufflers.

Silk will keep you warm. Silk will breathe, so you can tie your necker up over your nose and mouth like a bandit to keep out the frost if you like. It's not ostentatious, because it packs down small. You can pick'em to match every outfit or you can stick with one that'll be your signature. Or somewhere in between. You can switch things up and wear it on your head if you feel like it.

Mine was a fiver. Supposing I only wore it on days I took a photo, so far that's seventy-one pence per wear at this point and for how cold it's been and how comparatively warm I've been, that's flippin' worth it.

Start looking here, for a warmer warm winter. It's snowing out there, y'know!
