Winter is here and some of the coldest days of the year are yet to come. Although stocking up on a warm winter coat usually happens before the freezing temperatures and snow days, it’s often in the middle of winter that we remember that winter accessories, like the best scarves for women, are just as essential. There are plenty of beautiful cashmere, wool, alpaca and down scarves on the market, but it can be difficult to decipher which versions will actually ward off the cold – most scarves are more fashionable than functional. However, the two can coexist and we are here to bring you the best ones that will keep you warm And Stylish.
Vogues Guide to the Best Scarves for Women:
Get ready to bundle up with some of our favorites. Winter scarves are an easy way to add some life to a plain coat. We love classic prints like Barbour x Ganni’s tartan fringed take or Acne Studios’ chunky plaid interpretation, while Khaite’s oversized Fair Isle number is high on our must-haves list. You can always opt for a solid, striking color instead of a print, such as the spicy, knitted red from Guest in Residence. Minimalists will love the simple yet chic options from Cuyana and Theory, in lush cashmere that is impossibly soft. And if you’re a fan of the puffer coat, why not try a puffer scarf? It is a practical purchase and perhaps the most efficient solution for cold temperatures. In this category, Prada’s city-ready black is street style approved, while Vince’s pull-through version is an everyday no-brainer. There’s no better time than now to pick up a scarf — and these all make great gifts, too.
