“Mother love is the fuel that enables a normal human being to do the impossible” – Marion C. Garretty.
Your mother is the most important woman in your life as she is the one who enters you into the world.
Coming into being on this planet is impossible without mothers and thus mothers day helps us reinforce this theory.
For years people young and old have been celebrating mothers day by giving personalized gifts as mothers day gifts and mothers day flowers to their mom.
In UK, Mothers day 2010 is going to be celebrated on March 14th this year.
With only a few weeks left people have already started planning on how they are going to celebrate this unique day. Some common mothers day ideas include mothers day flowers, mothers day cards, mothers day poems and mothers day lunch.
Being a woman and a mother of a three year old I believe the best gift a woman likes is one which adds to her wardrobe. Now we all know our mothers have lots of outfits too so adding another one would not be of any good.
Instead, it would be better to give her an accessory with she can keep with her forever and remember your love even when you are away.
A simple ladies silk scarf would make an excellent mother’s day gift. It can be any colors such as a white silk scarf or a red silk scarf or both. Your mommy can enjoy wearing it as a neck scarf or as a silk scarf dress.
So stick to my advice and choose from unusual gifts such as a silk scarf and enjoy mothers day.
Happy Mothers day!

There’s no remedy for winters but to stay warm.
Everyone wants to stay warm during the cold winter days. The dropping mercury levels bring scarves and neckwear into action. Heavier knitted and woolen wraps replace lighter chiffon and silk scarf.
As the cold weather casts its spell scarves for women as well as mens scarves become an important dressing accessory. This lose piece of garment also become favorite gift items during the winter season.
Designers seek interesting scarf patterns for neck as well as head scarves. Labels such as Aquascutum and Louis Vuittion add interesting scarves to their ready to wear collection. In addition to cashmere and pashmina, fashion gurus seek newer and improved fabrics for style and convenience.
As an admirer of nature I sometimes wish I were born during the Romanticism period. Perhaps, I too would have created some breath taking piece of art which would have made me famous like William Blake.
Being a person of this nature and walking around the picturesque streets of Paisley I feel like preserving every scene through my digital camera. The sublimity of nature and its untamed qualities remind me of the presence of the Almighty.
Downloading the pictures on my laptop and browsing through them casts a magical spell reminding me of all the lovely sceneries.
One picture amongst my album is quite different and unique. It is of a paisley I once saw on a scarf in a small boutique. This is the best picture among my collection as it is congruent with the name of the town, Paisley. I wish I had bought this cashmere paisley shawl but don’t remember the location of the shop.
Having a passion for scarves and putting my thinking hat on, I plan to monogram the paisley onto a chiffon silk scarf and keep it as a souvenir from my trip to Paisley, Scotland. I have lots of silk and cashmere scarves but none would be like my paisley silk scarf.
My black scarf with a paisley monogram would be my breath taking piece of art and might one day make me famous like William Blake.

The word scarf brings to mind ‘a wrap for the neck and shoulder’ but trust me there is a lot more associated with this word!
No doubt, scarves are mostly shawl wraps of different knitting pattern used as head or neckwear to stay warm in the cold or light weight silk scarf to accessorize and outfit during the summers.
However, new and contemporary ways of utilizing the scarf include wearing it as a skirt and as a poncho.
A scarf simply wrapped around the lower body can work as an excellent skirt. Likewise, scarves draped around the shoulders and pinned at the center can take the form of a poncho.
There garments are easy to craft and can be made with scarves of different size and material.
Square and rectangular scarves make good skirts and sarongs. Whereas, longer and oblong once are more suitable for ponchos.
All types of material including cashmere, pashmina, cotton chiffon, woolen and silk scarves work equally well for this style. Be it tartan, paisley or mission all styles seem admirable when a scarf of either is worn as a skirt or a poncho.
Designer scarves have always been my weakness and I can’t seem to resist walking down the scarf accessories section of the top labels.
This time my dilemma lies between choosing one from two of my favorite brands, Gucci and Louis Vuittion.
The Gucci scarf my heart is set on is a GG pattern shawl. It is a dark purple scarf with black GG on it. The blend is 70% cashmere and 30% silk. The size is 45.3”L X 49.2”H. And it costs USD 395.
The other one is Louis Vuittion’s Leopard and Monogram Scarf. It is a crepe silk scarf with two Louis Vuittion signatures, the monogram and the leopared print. The size is 70.7”L X 7.9” H. It is 100% silk and costs USD 281.
Both of the above are excellent fashion scarves and would make great scarves for women. They can either be worn as a head scarf or as a neck scarf.
The above information confuses me as to if I should go for the purple scarf or the leopard monogram scarf. Both have become my heart throbs but would be too costly for me to buy two.
Can someone please help and advice me what to do?
When it comes to thinking of scarves we normally think of a warm shawl snuggled around as a neck scarf. Scarves are an accessory which can be worn year round depending on the material it is made of.
A cotton, light weight linen or pure silk scarf would be one’s summer accomplice. On the contrary, woolen knitted shawls and those with a higher percentage of cashmere or pashmina would make good winter scarf accessories.
A cashmere silk scarf is quite a unique add on as slightly playing around with the blend can make it adjustable for either weather. The standard ration is 70% cashmere to 30% silk. This blend makes the scarfs quite warm. Altering the ratio by adding more cashmere would make it warmer with 100% pashmina being the warmest. On the other hand, reversing the blend by adding more silk and lesser cashmere would make it lighter and more suitable for cooler climates.
