Hi there

Apologies for DM link, but would anyone know where I might get a scarf similar to the one Samantha Cameron was wearing yesterday?

gorgeous scarf

Not sure about that specific scarf but you might want to look at this blog as I think on Sunday she did a post on that very style of scarf with lots of links to different ones in different shops.

sybilfaulty · 09/12/2013 14:09

Thank you - that's really helpful. Fake fur heaven!

It is very similar to mine which is a Denim and Supply Reindeer Scarf

I got mine in the sale at asos, but you might be able to hunt one down elsewhere. It is unbelievably warm Smile

Are you sure it's a scarf? It might be part of the coat because it hasn't moved much in the various shots.

GobblersKnob · 09/12/2013 14:22

Actually it's not, it looks much hairier than mine on careful close inspection, I suspect it is Mongolian sheepskin.

burnishedsilver · 09/12/2013 14:22

No. I take that back. It's a scarf alright. Its lovely. I'll keep an eye out.

Marylou2 · 09/12/2013 17:45

Nooooo! Why did I look? I want one too now.Sam Cam always looks great.

sybilfaulty · 09/12/2013 18:43

It's so pretty isn't it and would jazz up a plain wool coat.

Samantha always looks fab, in an understated and rich way.

That is very nice indeed - anyone seen a non dead animal version?

(She does not 'always look fab' though - she generally looks dull.)

sybilfaulty · 10/12/2013 16:40

Cuddly, i think they are all fake. Just realistic fakes, IYSWIM.

I do think she always looks well dressed - very safe, of course, but not likely to be in something risqué or even edgy given who she is.

I think hers is Mongolian isn't it? I'd like one that is long and hangs well rather than goes all sort of bunched up if that makes sense?

hollyisalovelyname · 10/12/2013 19:08

How come I posted the very same question a few days ago and got just 3 replies..... and they just mocked my taste HmmHmmHmm

mrsrhodgilbert · 10/12/2013 19:15

It's not fake, it is a Mongolian sheepskin scarf. I have a few from when they were popular a few years ago. Lovely colour but I haven't seen them around recently.

sybilfaulty · 10/12/2013 19:53

Thanks, everyone.

Holly, I think it is lovely. It is to my taste, even if to not many other people's (except Sam herself!) I don't really care if others don't like something - if I do, that's what matters for me.

Mrs RG, can you remember where you got yours.

hollyisalovelyname · 11/12/2013 15:51

Anybody know where it is from please?

hollyisalovelyname · 13/12/2013 07:28

Anybody?

mrsrhodgilbert · 13/12/2013 15:14

They were everywhere a few years ago but I think I got one from East. I've just checked their website and they still do two colour, blue and plum. Sorry, can't link, but have a look.

TheZeeTeam · 13/12/2013 15:16

I thought it was the coat. I've been looking for that coat everywhere since I saw that photo!

mrsrhodgilbert · 13/12/2013 15:18

Amazon also sell them....is there no end to what you can get from them?

TheZeeTeam · 13/12/2013 15:25

It looks like the Karl Donaghue one too.

hollyisalovelyname · 13/12/2013 23:43

Thank you

Asps do large faux fur coat collar scarves which might be good ifyou can't find the exact one?
