Our Biggest Sale of the Year is Here!
This is my fourth scarf purchase and I was happy to receive the package in a timely manner but not happy to find that the scarf was heavyweight feeling more like a rough cotton rather than the 50/50 silk cotton blend that it claimed to be. I had hoped to wear it as an accessory for summer like the other three silk/cotton scarves but it is so heavy that I will be hot so I will put it away - not at all what it claimed to be and was also missing the materials and manufacture label of the other three scarves - so I doubt it is in fact the same silk/cotton 50/50 blend. So disappointed - especially since I needed the blue color.
