All accessories go through cycles of popularity, and we are definitely in the season of the scarf. For spring it was about brushing the dust off your silks and rethinking how you incorporate them in unique ways as head wraps, belts, or neckties. For new cold weather interpretations, why not mix up your traditional scarf game with some hybrids? Style, check. Function, check. Bring it on fall/winter 2026!
Scarf + Sweater
A mix between a scarf and a sweater, these hybrids are winter’s answer to the beloved scarf top. Ranging from wool to cashmere, tanks to long sleeves, and skinny to robust scarves, these tops force you to think of a scarf as a pivotal part of your outfit and not just something you grab as you’re running out the door!

Scarf + Hood
A matching scarf and hat set is classic, but what if you take it one step further and mesh the two together? These scarves with built in hoods provide a fashionable twist on a classic matching set, and make it so that you have one less layering piece to think about as the months get colder.
