It has been decided that we need a new Mumsnet Scarf

[Jacksmania]

In order to stop hijacking stormforce10's brilliant thread, in which she gave another TerribleCuntMum a proper bollocking (go, stormforce!!! - and link here for anyone who wants to cheer her on), I am starting this one.

The old Mumsnet Scarf, judging by responses posted to a picture, is just not serving its purpose any more.

Here are a few alternate options.

Please add yours.

Skull scarf with attitude

Gorgeous white and grey butterfly scarf - my personal favourite

More butterfly options, with international shipping for those of us not in UK

Not so great, but worth mentioning nonetheless

The Original Scarf, which looks great on the wearer, but of course we don't all look like that

[Nagoo]

I have bought the maps with the orange border. I love it :)

[Megatron]

Oh I really like the bee snood. Hate the maps one apart from the OS one but I suspect I shall be outvoted!

[cashmere]

yellow garden birds

[fuzzpig]

I saw a brighter yellow bird scarf in Deichmann today for a fiver, was quite tempted.

I am no longer fussed which scarf 'wins' as I have decided, as an ornamental-scarf-virgin, that I will just get a few different ones! :o

[RollerCola]

I think the reason we all liked the original scarf was its size as well as the pattern - it was massive. Are any of these new ones as big? I like them to hang long down to my waist when wrapped once round my neck, & have some 'volume' if possible. I don't like thin flimsy ones.

[GlaikitFizzog]

The not so great butterfly one is big, not as big as the original but big enough to do what you want. :)

[KatoPotato]

My linked scarf is the same size as the original?

[polyhymnia]

Have some good scarves at bargain prices as result of previous MN recommendations. But am bored now with birds, butterflies, animals, etc (though animal print is a 'classic' which doesn't date, I think).

What I really want is this:

Love the colours and subtle print. Won't be able to afford it this month, though!

[GwendolineMaryLacey]

Gone for star in wine. Not so great one is full of bloody butterflies, with their sticky out bits and everything.

[Follyfoot]

This one's a bit different...

[Awks]

This is lovely www.zara.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product/uk/en/zara-neu-S2013/358026/1050239/BUTTERFLY%20PRINT%20SCARF

[landofsoapandglory]

Scottishmummy that bird scarf you linked to is on eBay for £8.99, I bought In light pink, but they have ivory too. The ebay shop I got mine from is called Tenki. I have a few scarves from there, they usually deliver in 2 days.

[reikizen]

speaking of scarves does anyone know where i can get one with a tassel on opposite corners(not like a fringe)? They just seem to hang well.

[scottishmummy]

Thank you soapandglory,wil look for the birds scarf
I love accessories, floaty scarves included
But i suppose trick is not getting over done everyone has one scarf

[polyhymnia]

Yes, and everyone seems to have a bird (or butterfly, or little animal) one now. That's why I'm bored with them, however pretty. Am taking a couple of mine round to the charity shop this morning.

[scottishmummy]

Mulberry kicked off the animals,birds thing on scarves
I love a charity shop rummage

[polyhymnia]

Yes, Mulberry kickied it off quite a while back now and IMO it was done to death last year. This isn't fashion snobbery - I'm all for things being affordable - I just am genuinely bored with them because have seen them around so much. That's why I'm going back towards 'plainer' designs, like the spotted scarves someone posted on here and the geometric Comptoir des Cotonniers one I posted.

I'm not bored with my MN leopard print scarf, though, because I think animal print is a timeless look.

[Hissy]

Gosh Nessie your skin tone must be a million miles away from mine, I would look as if I'd bee dug up in any of those colours!

I LOVE them, but sadly they HATE my tone.

Plain is good, a good injection of colour (for me anyway) is lovely, whatever the design.

[Hissy]

been, not bee...
