all about the circle scarf.

It has come to my attention that Saskatoon's newest fashion hothouse, American Apparel, will now be carrying my favorite accessory of all time: the circle scarf.  I don't know what it is about them that I love so much; maybe it's the way they can be worn so easily, and just drape over your entire body, but I love them.  I saw one last year on Urban Outfitter's website, but before I had a chance to save up the money for shipping, I was out of luck.  They sold out in record time.       

Shortly after, I had the genius idea that I would knit myself one.  Or several; all in different colors, but that idea lasted about as long as it took Urban to sell out of them.  I have come to the realization, that knitting will never be my thing.   You can understand my excitement when I came across one at H&M in NYC.  I purchased a grey, knit one but it will be cool to have them at my fingertips. 

Well, my fingertips and about thirteen thousands other peoples.  

Now anyone who knows me, knows that I am never fully dressed without a scarf.  I own about 40 now I'd say, and am always willing to add to the collection.  The one thing, however that bothers me about my scarf collection, are the fringes on the ends.  I love fringed bags, I love Christian Louboutin's 'Forever Tina' fringed boots, but I just don't like fringed scarves.  I just feel it gives a polished look, too much of a bohemian finish.   

Not so, with the circle. I can't wait to run to AA and pick myself up a dozen or so in various colors.
