How to purchase a scarf for a gift

A few suggestions
- Read fashion journals, go through latest movie magazines and follow the fashion on the net to check out what the latest styles of scarves the happening crowd is wearing. Watching movies and the newest television shows will also help you in making up your mind as to what you should buy.
- If the scarf needs to serve a utilitarian function then you should buy either a woolen or a cashmere scarf which is all natural and feels good around the neck. Avoid synthetic materials as far as possible.
