Ahhhh, the socially acceptable snuggie referred to as the blanket scarf. Whoever decided to make a scarf as big as a blanket did a beautiful thing for the world and those of us who despise the idea of wearing pyjamas in public.
For those brisk Fall days, there is nothing cozier than wrapping up in a large fuzzy blanket while still looking like you put some thought and effort in to your outfit. It is a great way to dress and feel cozy, and it's on trend! So everybody wins.

On an average day, my morning starts at about 4:45am... until I hit snooze a few times and then really start my day at about 5am. Living outside of the city, I allow myself 2 hours to get to school, which is completely necessary. With an exhausting commute time, and an even more exhausting day, the appeal of dressing comfortably and cozy grows.
When my alarm goes off to the tune of "Over the Rainbow", I roll out of bed and immediately experience the tired chills, I usually end up over compensating with my outfit. Of course at 6am its going to be Finland freezing and all I want to do is pile on as many layers as I possibly can... but by the time I get to school, it's usually about time to start peeling some of those layers back off again.
But in my opinion, the more layers of wool the better.

As the first day of Fall graced us with it's presence, it was officially time to break out the over sized blanket scarf. Blanket scarves are most definitely trending this season, and you can pick them up at most retailers. I paired my cream and grey large plaid wool blanket scarf with simple black skinny jeans and my favourite go-to slip on sneaks. I went for some layers and colour, and paired a vintage Tommy Hilfiger denim button up underneath a periwinkle coloured oversized sweater with a roll neck. The layering was subtle; I just had the denim cuffs poking out of the sleeve hem, and the collar peaking out ever so slightly.
