Handmade Silk Scarf

klolita from Chicago, IL, Mar 28, 2008

I purchased the blue scarf and it is really quite beautiful, even prettier in person than on the website as you can really see the details. I wear it with my new London Fog Trench/Raincoat that I also recently purchased at Overstock.com, they work wonderfully together.

The shawl does not look like the picture. I sent it back as it was not an attractive item.
