I will share this article on all my social networks – you can follow me there Patrick.
I change my set of scarves every year. Sometimes it costs me a lot of money but when scarves are in question I simply just don’t care.
This is why i’d rather have a green and red scarf. Next to keeping my scarfs in-house I keep them in separate house. Unfortunately I can wear them only when its winter – summer is bit warm for scarfs 🙂
I hope that you agree with me
I agree with you – I also keep my scarves in one special place. I wear them only when its winter and winters here can be vary vary cold.
