Sacred Accessories

Do you spend more time and effort on your accessories than your clothes? Well, you are not alone and there is a great new website for you called sacredaccessories.com. They carry favs like earrings, necklaces, scarves to the purse holders mentioned in a previous cupcakelife post. It is also refreshing to see quality crafted merchandise without a 300% mark up! Here is one of the best selling pieces, the Raj prayer scarf in aqua. Similar to the Sir Alistar Rai scarf, but for half the price ($49). Check out the 'gifts under $50' page.

Summer Scarves?

Sounds like an oxymoron, but apparently not!   I have spotted a few summer scarves on people.  I guess you could call them 'summer scarf-wearing people'.  Maybe it is because summer is not here in full force yet.  Of course the lightweight ones are best and fringe makes it more interesting.  I have seen some people wearing their scarves with t-shirts and tank tops.  This one from Banana Republic comes in white or navy and is 100% silk.  $69.  Maybe I should refer to this species as 'spring scarf-wearing people' for now.  Just to be fair.

Scarf Down Takeout without the Guilt???

Everyone has seen a Chinese takeout box before...but have you made a scarf out of what was inside before? These are called 'Szechuan Scarf Kits' and they come with yarn in place of the noodles, knitting needles in place of chopsticks; everything you need to start scarfing it up in no time. Available in Lychee (blue), Green Pepper (green), Black Bean (black), and Sweet & Sour (purple) 'these kits make a wonderful gift that will have the uninitiated knitting and the hardcore knitter chuckling'. Complete knitting instructions included. So cute and only $20! At that price you could buy a few and have them on hand for gifting.
