Warm and practical winter scarves equals winter luxury!

The feel and luxury of cashmere makes it one of the most desirable fabrics available. When winter blows in, everyone turns to their storage closet for gloves and scarves. Often these cold weather accessories are very utilitarian and lacking in style. By purchasing a winter cashmere scarf, gloves and even a hat, you are sure to stay warm while remaining stylish.

One of the great things about a cashmere scarf and other winter garments is that you can be sure they will never go out of style. Cashmere always looks expensive and is always cozy. It is simply one of the softest materials that exists! It is also extremely light weight and has a delicate appearance but is still extremely warm.

What exactly is cashmere? It may be surprising to learn that this expensive fabric is actually goat fur. Kashmir goats, originally found in Mongolia and now bred throughout the world, produce a thick undercoat to protect themselves from the cold. This fur is sheered, typically once a year, and then made into fine garments such as a cashmere scarf or sweater. The fur from the throat and underbelly makes for the most fine cashmere that is extremely resistant to pilling. It takes four years of sheering to produce enough material to make one sweater, which explains its high cost! The fur used to make this material naturally comes in white, brown, and gray but can be died to produce most any color.

Cashmere has been used for millennia to great garments for the elite. Today, it is still a luxury fabric but it's increased production means that small items such as cashmere gloves and winter scarves can be obtained by most anyone. Because of it's class and durability, winter items such as cashmere scarves and gloves are well worth the investment. They will never go out of fashion and with proper care can last for years.

To give extra flair to your outfit, you can wear your cashmere scarf in unexpected ways. Consider wrapping on your head as a beautiful head wrap. Buy an extra long scarf and wrap it around your neck leaving the ends dangling to accent a backless dress. Try tying one around your waist as a belt to cinch in an oversized shirt or dress. Tie it around the handle of a brief case to add a soft touch. The possibilities are truly endless, and you can never get it wrong when using such a sought-after fabric.

A cashmere scarf is also a great choice to be worn as a traditional scarf. The Kashmir goats they come from use them as protection from winter elements, and you can too. The material is extremely light weight so you will never feel your scarf is too bulky or heavy. The ultra thin construction and soft texture allows for beautiful draping around the throat while truly keeping you warm. This material goes well with almost any other fabric; wool, cable knits, silk, leather. A cashmere scarf will never feel overly restrictive like other thicker fabrics can.

Winter scarves like cashmere scarfs and gloves will help to dress-up any outerwear, and at the same time keep you warm and comfortable. They may be a little pricey, but you will wear them time and time again for years, making them truly worth their cost.
