Up to the Minette

The skies darken. Rains come. You heave a sigh, knowing it’ll be many months before you see flowers bloom again.

Unless, that is, you invest in Minette’s fall accessories.

The handmade scarves, hats, mittens, and capelets feature detailed floral designs that are sure to brighten things up. The leaf and blossom neck piece is a three-dimensional felt number with intricate embroidery. The leaf stencil scarf is hand-cut from wool and comes in pretty pastels. And the blommer hat, hand-knitted with floral appliques, will keep your noggin warm and your spirits high.

Other designs bring seasonal cheer as well. The box scarf has a fancy fold pattern and a loop to keep it in place. Pixie mittens come in jazzy stripes and have a removable cord so you won’t lose them. And the reversible furry hat offers two super cute looks.

If grim weather means looking this cute, bring it on.
