I was extremely lucky to head down to Palm Springs and Disneyland (yes, to me, Disneyland is the ENTIRE state!) for a two week holiday! I spent the first week with my Dad, and then my Mom and boyfriend flew down for the second week. During that time we went to a market in Palm Springs numerous times (sidebar: if you are there, go buy one of the garlic graters- they are awesome!) and, fortunately for me, they had multiple stalls selling beutiful scarves. I have a bit of a penchant for scarves and firmly believe that if you wrap it around your neck just-so it will hide a bit of that extra belly bulge you may or may not have lying around.
Anyways, I went to this one lovely stall a number of times and purchased...a reasonable amount of scarves. That is, until I made the fatal error of going with my boyfriend. You see, I had already purchased one or two before he came down, so when he saw me with another six or eight in my hand (one was to give as a gift...to his sister!) he said to me, "You do not need anymore scarves...I counted the ones you have before I came down and you already have 13!", and I said, "Okay..." and bought them all anyways. When I reconted this to my Dad he sort of laughed and noticed that I did not argue the number of scarves that I apparently already own...he knew that by my lack of argument and indignation I actually had a significant number more than what my boyfriend originally thought. This is true...he may have counted 13 at home, but that did not count the ones hanging in the front hall, nor did it count the bucket I have up in my closet overflowing with scarves and belts, and finally, nor did it count the 8 that I had packed and taken on the trip with me. It is safe to say that I have upwards of at least 40 scarves...but what can I say? I just love them! I wear them all the time- even in these smoking hot summer days...a girls' got to do what a girls' got to do!
This brings me to my question...for all of you scarf lovers out there- how on Earth do you store them all?! While I love finding a "new" scarf buried deep in a drawer (as I did today), my hatred for not having the perfect scarf to compliment my outfit outweighs this love. So what's a girl to do?! I'd love to hear how you store all of your beloved scarves!
