Matching hat, scarf and gloves - naff or stylish?

I love a bright, wooly hat me. Had a lovely lambswool Howies scarf and hat last year, but have lost the scarf. Now have lots of mismatched hats and scarves and no gloves. Am thinking of asking for a new "set" for my birthday next month, rather like this scarf. There is also a beanie hat and gloves in the same knit.

Is this a but twee and naff, or chic and stylish?

I think very stylish to have all matching and am currently eyeing up some Seasalt sets. Smile

I think matching sets are a bit too toddler-esque.

I would wear a scarf like the one you link too but then pick out one of the colours in the scarf for a hat and gloves. Complimenting rather than matching.

Hmm, casting vote anyone?

I don't wear hats but it drives me crazy when my scarf and gloves don't match! So I say chic and stylish ;)

I think Bunny has hit the nail on the head with them being a bit toddler-esque.

I was thinking of the hat and scarf, and I have plain pink gloves.

I don't think it matters, match or don't match, judge each combination separately....no rules! Personally I spend a lot on a pair of very warm gloves and cashmere hat, can't stand itchy hats...but in have loads of scarfs, so I never match, am I bothered? Wink

I wouldn't have all three matching. The hat and gloves matching but with a different scarf.

With all three matching I would feel that I looked boring, I like a bit of quirkiness.
