Frost/Vixen

Yarnz Spring Scarves

The white jean jacket. The faux pashmina. The shrug. When it comes to botched cover-ups, you’re the Richard Nixon of fashion.

Redeem yourself this spring with oversize (but featherweight) scarves from Yarnz.

By the same folks behind avant-garde sweater line The Breed, the luxurious neck warmers come in prints that’ll dress things up, while the gauzy fabric and casually frayed ends impart an offhand, just-threw-it-on vibe.

A few standout stars can perk up your Oscar night ensemble. And with patterns like the ivory peacock feathers and fuchsia bohemian web, you’ll be anything but conventional.

The cashmere/silk creations are itch free and will keep your neck nice and toasty.

No matter how deep your throat.

Available at Turtle Boston, 619 Tremont Street, South End (617-266-2610); online at shopbop.com.
