It's a funny thing about life that you sometimes get what you want when you're not looking for it.

I've been struggling to tie my scarves in a way that will make me look groomed, instead of just cold. Normally I put the two ends together in a knot, but they sort of bulge out of my coat, or are too long and stick out under my jacket. Not a good look.

This morning, I just happened to find my silver-and-charcoal scarf which would go perfectly with my black top. I thought, 'Gee, this scarf's a bit long.' So I doubled it over and made a loop with the ends.

Voila! Perfect look. Perfect length. Scarf problem solved.



Serendipity is a beautiful thing.

Or as Polly says in the movie Mandie and the Secret Tunnel, "Ah do so looove providential timing!"
