With temperatures dropping, it’s definitely ‘scarf and boots’ weather now. I thought it would be fun to post a series of my Fall Essentials, starting with the Plaid Blanket Scarf. These over-sized scarves became popular last winter – with everyone trying to track down the infamous ZARA camel blanket scarf (posted about here). It’s no surprise that Plaid Blanket Scarves continue to be popular this fall – the cheerful print combined with voluminous material make them ideal for keeping you warm and cozy in the colder months…what’s not to love?
Although I missed out on the ZARA original, I was very happy to find this brightly-colored alternative at Forever21 last January. It’s no longer available – but I’ve found a lot of VERY similar pieces on Amazon – see below! [Updated links in 2018]

I love this outfit! I can't stop going on Pinterest and whatnot and searching up fall outfits. They're way too cozy with the scarfs and boots <3christycee.blogspot.caÂ
Thanks Christy – I love fall outfits too…especially because I get to wear my boots again 🙂
I love these types of scarves!! Beautiful xhttp://www.sweetcandydreamer.com
Thanks – they're such a soft & comfy option for fall!
Love blanket scarves especially in plaid, such a cute look on you! I have to go check out #1 & 3 now those are amazing.Martawww.sweatersstripesandsweets.com
Good picks – the yellow & grey is such a pretty combo for #1, and #3 reminds me so much of the ZARA scarf.
This outfit is SO FABULOUS. I think I have all of the pieces except for a scarf with that color scheme, so I'm sure you can guess what's going on my wishlist. 🙂 It will have to wait awhile though since it's STILL too warm to wear a scarf here!Gina – On the Daily Express
Wishing some cooler weather your way…I need to see the Gina version of this outfit 🙂
I'm loving blanket scarves this fall! Such a cozy layered look!Jillwww.dousedinpink.com
Thanks Jill – they really are so cozy 🙂
I want one of these so badly! I am trying to decide what color combo I want!www.amemoryofus.com
Can't wait to see which one you pick up Darcy!
I've never had a blanket scarf before, I can't believe yours is from F21, it looks so expensive, I must get one!! Looks fab on you especially with the navy blazer.
Thanks Lorna – F21 definitely have some great bargains…and some of them are great quality too!
Love these scarfs! I wish it got cold enough here to justify purchasing one but gosh are they cute! Hard to resist such a cozy looking accessory that stands out against anything! I love the way you've styled yours 🙂
Thanks Noelle – I highly recommend picking one of these up – at the very least, you could save it for plane journeys…they double up as fabulous blankets too LOL!
Yes to plaid blanket scarves this fall! Yours looks SO comfy and warm and I love the pattern. =)http://www.avecamber.blogspot.comhttp://www.bloglovin.com/avecamberI hope you are having a great week so far!Amber
Thanks Amber – glad you're loving the plaid blanket trend too!
You look great in that outfit! The jewel tone of the jacket along with the cool grey of the scarf is very becoming. — aka @ari_Kostan
Thanks so much Ari – I love the colour combo they used in the scarf!
I love this outfit! You look so put together, and so perfectly fall. That scarf does look really cozy, and I love how you styled it.
Thanks! Blazer + scarf + boots + jeans is a great combo – am thinking of stocking up on more blazers 😉
This is a great alternative to the Zara scarf. I bought it last year and ended up returning it because it was impractical for living in CA. Now I wished I kept it.Alicewww.happinessatmidlife.comP.S. Hope you will stop by and join TBT Fashion link up this Thursday.
Good idea returning it if it wasn't going to get much use…scarves are definitely required where I live for at least 1/3rd of the year LOL!
I love the scarf! It looks so cozy and warm. I entered the Spark Sessions contest so if I win I will definitely be there 🙂
Fingers crossed for you Megan – hope you win the contest!!!!
WOW you look great! I also got that same exact F21 scarf and I cant wait to wear it if it would only cool down here in So.California =(
Yay scarf twins!
pretty. very nice look :)http://sbr-fashion-fashion.blogspot.com/
Perfect Fall outfit! Plaid scarf is a Fall must, even when pretty much every single blogger owns one haha. So I had to get one too haha 🙂
This outfit is why I love fall so much. Looking great!
sooo fabulous! This is totally my fall combo – just add a blanket scarf! My IG feed is full of them right now, so you'd think I would have an aversion, but I just love mine so so much! Love how you styled yours! Perfect as always.Carylee | morepiecesofme.com
