It's no secret that we're big fans of the timeless allure that is associated with French-girl fashion. From their sleek styling tips to their classic independent brands, you can't go wrong looking in their direction for some effortless styling inspiration.

Enter the triangle knitted scarf. A direct relative of the classic silk neckerchief, the triangle scarf maintains the same silhouette but is crafted from warm fabrics like cashmere and wool, making it easy to polish any outfit.

It's a great—and more budget-friendly—alternative to this season's scarf coat, while simultaneously keeping your neck warm while avoiding the stress of a bundled layer of fabric.

But more than a coat, it's an accessory that easily transitions into our capsule wardrobes. Worn loosely over cashmere knits or longline coats, it's a failsafe piece that will not only serve as a great addition to your wardrobe but also make a great holiday gift for any loved one.
