We Covet Accessories That Make Us Feel We're Gonna Make It After All

In this economy, who can afford a new coat?  Instead take a page out of Mary and Rhoda's book and punch up your old parka or pea with funky scarves and accessories. 

We dig this retro 70's neck wrap from Etsy shop rikrak.  It's made from repurposed vintage fabric in cool greens and the big color of the season, goldenrod.  A medium weight cotton and canvas patchwork, it works for both outdoor warmth or indoor wardrobe remixes.

And at less than twenty bucks, it will safely keep you cozy through the credit crisis.
