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.

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.

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?
