Spring scarves

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Hope everyone had a good day with some Irish cheer. I will have some green themed goods in tomorrow's Friday Faves post.

Aside from honouring our Irish friends, today was a big deal in Toronto for another reason - Marshalls opened its doors. I'm not sure how I feel about this, being a die hard Winner's fan and all. I guess the more the merrier right? And maybe it will keep crowds away from Winner's for a bit (doubtful!).  Marshalls to me doesn't look quite as classy as Winner's (the website and logo look dated to me...suburban 90's anyone?), but who knows. For all the time I have spent travelling in the U.S. I haven't frequented Marshalls so I will have to form an opinion myself (once I wait long enough for the crowds to die down at the Toronto locations...I'm thinking a month or so?).

On another note, Real Simple had a great daily today about spring scarves. If you haven't noticed, I am super pumped that the weather is getting nicer. These scarves remind me of those days where you can just throw one on to be warm enough in the sun...ahhh can't wait.

Here are some of my favourites:
Soft Washed Wool Scarf by J.Crew

Dawn’s Early Light Scarf by Mod Cloth 
via Modcloth 
This one reminds me of a scarf I bought 6 (!) years ago in Cambodia...I still wear it.

I'm so excited for the spring weather. I suggested to Dan that this would make a great birthday present for me and I seem to be in luck since it sold :)

I've wanted one for the longest time - but I'm cheap!
