October 20th, 2015 at 2:00am

It’s that time of year again when the air gets colder and we start piling on the layers. Transitioning from summer to fall can be tough, especially when it’s not quite cold enough for heavy jackets, however this Fashionista has the perfect solution.

She is rocking the new blanket scarf trend, which is perfect for keeping warm on those crisp autumn days. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes so why not grab one to accentuate your own personal style? One thing for certain is that not only are they cozy, but they’re ideal for relaxing in class because of the soft material—hence the name “blanket” scarf. The durability and size of the fabric allow this staple piece to be worn in many different ways including draped over the shoulders, wrapped around the neck or as a shawl. By pairing this awesome accessory with a neutral ensemble consisting of jeans and a simple long-sleeved shirt (all black in this rendition), it makes the pattern and colours of the scarf stand out. Distressed jeans also add to the detail and create an edgy look. She is sporting a pair of classic black booties which goes without saying, matches with everything and is a must-have for the comfort of walking to wherever you need to go. For the final touch, add a small cross-body bag and your look is complete.

How To: Have you ever been hesitant on how to rock the blanket scarf? Worry not! One simple way to wear this little number is to scrunch it up into a line and drape around the neck to fall in front of you, this way you can never go wrong.
