10 of the cosiest cashmere scarves to wrap up in this winter
A cashmere scarf is a wardrobe staple that is always worth investing in. The ultimate in luxurious comfort, the right design has the power to transform any winter outfit – and is an accessory that you know will never go out of style, making it an excellent investment if you're trying to build a hardworking capsule wardrobe.
When selecting the right one, it's imperative to check the material. Opting for a pure or blended mix of 100 per cent natural material rather than something mixed with the likes of polyester or nylon is the key to getting a quality, lasting scarf. Plastics are not only terrible for the environment but they can cause bobbling and be irritating to your skin, too. When it comes to style, you can go French with a short scarf that ties chicly round the neck or opt for a big, cosy slouchy scarf that will make a statement. Neutrals will prove hardworking as they tend to go with everything, but a bright or patterned cashmere scarf can be a stylish way to inject some welcome colour into your winter wardrobe.
When storing them, make sure to use a wool comb or sweater stone every once in a while to prevent any signs of piling. If there is any danger of moths, store them folded in air-tight bags for extra safe keeping.
