Scarves are my favorite accessory, because they instantly add color, texture, and/or pattern to an outfit. They also keep you warm! I got this colorful pom pom scarf from ModCloth.com. It's unique and pretty sizable at 52 inches by 52 inches! The pom poms are actually quite bigger than I expected when I saw the picture online (they are about an inch in diameter), but I love how they stand out and are so colorful. This scarf really livens up a simple outfit! Read more...

In these pictures, I'm wearing it with a red spring flower dress that has a nice ruffle around the neckline. Read more...
